  • Fascinating, informative, and engaging - just perfect!

    I wrote my masters thesis on Lyme disease and actually did research with one of the interviewees in the final episode and even I learned a lot from this show! Seriously a must-listen for anyone living in the Northeast.

  • Bingeworthy and educational

    Loved this deep dive into Lyme disease and it’s many contributors- biological, ecological and even social. So interesting!

  • Fascinating and intelligent

    Thoughtful, nuanced, compassionate and funny. Plus, there’s an amazing extra flavour added by listening to a program on the social dimensions of a new disease with long term consequences, released in late 2019. The last sentences of the final episode go hard.
