Very enjoyable discussions. I don’t get to listen as often as I would like, but each episode I’ve been able to listen to has been enjoyable. Informative, engaging and thoughtful.
Please keep up the good work.🙏
Accessible, informative and easy to listen to. The hosts are charming and I learn a lot.

Across episodes, the discussions center on science literacy, skeptical inquiry, and critical analysis of public health claims, misinformation, and political developments in Europe. Long-form interviews, history-focused segments, and regular news roundups mix with personal banter and travel notes, creating an approachable yet rigorously evidence-based exploration of current events, science, and pseudoscience. Noteworthy are in-depth profiles of historical figures, debates on energy, vaccines, and tech-aided misinformation, and a consistent emphasis on clear communication and responsible skepticism for a pan-European audience.
