I'm so glad there is a Sheldon in my life sharing valuable and learned perspective only attainable from a true skeptic. Bravo!

Presents incredibly interesting material in an very accessible format. Each episode delves into new areas and teaches me something novel. The good news segment is a very welcome part as we all too often only hear bad stories from other media.

A super enjoyable podcast that brings both hard-hitting science and amiable levity to the table. Thoughtful interviews with leading thinkers in science and humanities. And its hosted by the always knowledgeable Sheldon Helms! I am really excited for future episodes!
