The content of the show is GREAT A+. Please work on the thumping sound from one or both of the microphones and adjust the volume so both hosts are more balanced. Everyone interested in current science trends and topics should give this show a listen.
These guys go in depth with the science, but they hold your hand with the background. You come away actually understanding what happened. They’re also funny. Easy 5 star, would recommend.
