Such a reliable source of information, and entertaining. There’s so much disinformation out there, this show not only uses solid sources but they always explain arguments and counter-arguments.

Wow, can't believe there's so few reviews of this podcast. It's my absolute favorite! Debunking myths and fake news, in a funny and easy to understand way.
The show changed over the years, and I do miss Jonathan, but Dr Labos is keeping up the good work in a brilliant way, as always.
Very much worth listening.

Love the podcast.
