Very entertaining and well delivered, it’s criminal that this podcast hasn’t received the fame it deserves! Caters for both casual listeners and science enthusiasts, and I always leave with a greater knowledge and appreciation about it. Keep it up!

United Kingdom6 years ago - Best. Podcast. Ever.
This is one of the first podcasts I ever tried and the one that keeps me trying more podcasts. Scott’s enthusiasm for the poisons, venoms, and toxins makes him a pleasure to listen to. I don’t under stand the second tier of higher science, but it’s still fun to listen to and I end up learning a lot of stuff.
And the Black Mamba episode was fun for additional trivia information watching the new Jumanji movie. 😂
Apple Podcasts5Travelling SquidUnited States7 years ago - Amazing show!
I like how Scott breaks the show down. He does an amazing job explaining the science while keeping it interesting and exciting.
Please make more episodes or start a new podcast, you’re built for this!
