NO SUCH THING
iHeartPodcasts and KaleidoscopeJoin Manny, Noah, and Devan — three best friends and journalists — as they settle dumb arguments by actually doing the research.
Each week, they start with a debate or discussion. Why don’t men ask follow up questions? Should schools ban phones? Is dating an AI chatbot cheating? Then, they go out into the world, talk to experts, conduct experiments, and find the answer.

- Great Topics; Disappointing Analysis
I listened to a few of these after it was recommended by Wiser World. The hosts are engaging, the topics are neat, but the actual thinking around some of these topics seems to miss obvious considerations.
I noticed a lack of thoughtfulness in the episodes on outdoor clothes on the bed and whether recycling works, and those were two of my first three episodes I listened to, so I’ve decided to give the rest a pass.
It’s too bad though! I love the idea behind the podcast, but execution falters…

Extremely poor take regarding the country-accent and hip hop and r&b comparison especially using Elvis as THE example!

United States22 days ago - Entertainingly Educational
These three guys - Manny, Noah, and Devan - have a marvelously approachable way of delivering answers to questions you never knew you had. The topics are well researched, the guests are top notch, and the show is excellently paced. The trio of hosts have chemistry that you can hear in every episode; it’s not just that they’re great friends - you can tell they love what they do.
If you’re not listening, you are doing yourself a disservice. Get on it.

Those perfect friends who are just a little bit smarter than you and a little bit funnier than you and make you feel warm and fuzzy and more curious about the world when you hang out with them.
