Most wonderful duo to teach you about science
This podcast is magnificent. They work so hard at making sure the listener stays engaged, helping you look at things in a different way and learn about stuff beyond your imagination. I don’t know how Daniel fits all this knowledge into his brain and finds the time to podcast to this quality. Thank you both for being such a big part of my universe fascination
Great podcast
Very well explain topics from particle physics and Astrophysics in a witty and crispy conversion. Enjoying thoroughly. I would like they start covering other advancements in physics as they could explain better for the benefit of wider audience.

Octonions- episode was 8th wonder of the world
Question episode 47 was great- Hello Daniel and Jorge , Thank you very much for answering my question in great detail. Our job is easy to ask but you explain it very well and in an engaging manner.

Misleading through misunderstanding
One hour episode titled "quantum relativity" spent 44 and a half minutes giving a really bad explanation of "quantum" and "relativity", replete with just plain awful jokes, 15 minutes on ads, and thirty seconds actually talking about "quantum relativity", which was almost entirely unenlightening.
