  • This pod has been amazing! Sadly, as much as I still respect and love.Pof. Fry, it seems the pod becomes rubbish without Dr. Rutherford. Not sure it's unique to him, but whateber it was he brought, Mr. Ó Brie doesn't have it. So I'm unsubing. Sorry guys, but 3 episodes in, I've skipped every one, so... I'm out.

  • Not the same

    Dara is definitely not a suitable replacement for Adam. Her acts like a child and doesn’t engage with the actual science. When the conversation finally gets interesting, he interrupts it and turns it into a joke. This podcast has lost its unique touch and isn’t worth listening too anymore.

  • Lost the plot

    What was an entertaining and witty podcast has lost the plot. Dara talks so quickly and energetically it’s impossible to understand what he’s saying and it does feel just like another podcast now rather than something quite innovative previously.
