I listen to one episode to learn something, but realised you don’t know anything about you did talk about. All you did was making stupid jokes about certain people. If you don’t agree with some since and technology and to not bother researching the facts about it, it’s better to say nothing than the rubbish that comes out of your mouth. I tried to finish the episode but it was hard to do it.
Love these guys - this is my go to podcast to listen to while cooking and I have to say they are crackup. Perfect combo of comedy, science and distraction. Love it.

Two hosts—Rod Lamberts and Will Grant—deliver a breezy, humor‑infused tour through science, history, and culture, pairing curious case studies with accessible explanations. Recent episodes span ancient archaeology, AI‑designed viruses, unusual biology, and quirky science history, all delivered with banter, anecdotes, and a shared skepticism about sensational claims. The pair often tie together disparate topics to reveal larger themes about research methods, ethics, and how science fits into everyday life. A standout element is the dynamic, chemistry‑driven on‑air rapport between two long‑time science communicators, making complex ideas approachable and entertaining for a broad audience.
