Podchaser52 years agodiy_advisor- A+
This podcast is awesome! The guests are thought-provoking and knowledgeable within their field. They are also very fair and balanced: for most, you can’t even tell which way they lean on the political spectrum, which is really refreshing. This opens the door for great conversations without the red or blue bias filter. There’s not much room for improvement; I can’t think of a single thing that would make this podcast any better! It really is an A+!

United States2 years ago Quite insightful. Things are not as bad as the media makes it seem. Reason can save the world. Love the interviews with various scientists. This podcast encourages civil discussion and live communication to understand and resolve issues, rather than force and violence. This is the world I want to live in. Keep up the great work!

A workable way to rise above the fray and get a good overview of what’s happening in the country — I found the midterm elections episode with political scientist Sean Evans quite useful as a US citizen to get a clear shed more nuanced picture of the political balance in the country today. Thanks for the high quality enlightening podcast! Keep it going, please.
