  • The Milky Way

    Hi,

    I was wondering where exactly are we in our galaxy? Like, how close to the center, etc.

    Emma age 12

    Also, why do humans have snot? What is it used for in your body?

    Oh yeah, and ALSO, why do climate deniers go to such trouble to ‘prove’ that climate change isn’t real?

    Also, what is it about spiders that scares people?

  • Beer

    Curious how you do your research. The program on beer used out-dated theory and taste map of the tongue. There are many different receptors everywhere on the human tongue and it's an easy DIY experiment. Also, have you never had a sweet before drinking something sweet like orange juice? The primed sweet sensation amplifies the sour/bitter in OJ, not reduce it as Jeanna claimed. Why didn't you girls just try it before recording the ep?? Im seriously doubting your data on all other episodes now... more

  • Fun podcast

    The normal podcast is great! Very fun to listen to and the information is quite accurate.

    The coronavirus episodes were great but now they’re just bad. We get new info which I really like, but she has to explain everything in such dumbed down terms. Then we get to the questions part of the podcast and she takes the dumbest questions that were already answered months ago. I swear the people that submit questions have never read an article in their life and this is the lazy way to get their ques... more

  • Could be better

    One of the hosts sounds conversational, enthusiastic, confident about what she’s saying and it’s great to listen to her. The other host sounds like she’s reading word for word from her paper(which she is) and makes it harder to listen to. No enthusiasm and I’m really not sure if she has a clue what she’s taking about or if it was a paper handed to her last minute.

    You could do so much better.

  • Please listen to it

    Extremely easy to digest. Their tone and inflections are great for audio listening. I enjoy that they don’t interject their politics into the facts of the subjects they cover. As long as it stays/seems like this opinion I will continue to listen to.

  • Too long

    Interesting topics but 10 or 15 minutes of content in each 45 minute episode. Could be educational, intriguing and even amusing but find I'm only listening to a few and only if I have the skip-forward button handy.
