Laugh and learn

I’ve been listening for years now and consider this podcast one of my absolute faves—SGU is presented by excellent science communicators who , whether they do a deep dive into a subject or give it a “once-over”, always have me thinking and questioning. And I feel like I know them, because they share bits of their lives—and I connect via storytelling.

The girl needs to be replaced

The women is so annoying and condescending, it would be a great podcast if she was replaced.
0/5 with her
5/5 without her

Highly recommended for anyone interested in critical thinking!
