Very much enjoy the show and how accessible it has made a new subject for me. The episodes are the perfect length too.
The hosts are really great at laying out the complex information in a way I could understand.
I never knew that the Pacific garbage island was more of a soup than an island.
This product is information, engaging, and i loved the back and forth between the hosts.
I don't know much about ocean science so this podcast is a fun way to approach a new subject. The information is scientific and solid but it's not over my head and the episodes are fairly short so it's not overwhelming. I'm definitely learning a lot.
