The best podcast for ads with intermittent science
To make a podcast palatable to the ears and make it one that people will come return to again and again, the host has to have a good voice, enunciation and cadence. The host here, while it’s not their fault, has a pronounced lisp, which is distracting from the content. The host should find a new career where their lisp is not a determinant.
Each question is broken down very clearly, and Jorge’s curiosity makes it fun to follow along. I also appreciate how they bring credible and engaging experts in each topic.
Great mixture of hard science and fun and fanciful dialog. Not so sure all the facts presented are in fact factual, but enough of them were to make this podcast very listenable.
Really fantastic podcast that explores topics that are fascinating for both adults and kids. It fills a real niche that I haven’t seen anywhere else. Thank you Jorge!
