Customer Reviews
On a positive note
I absolutely enjoy the content and cast and guests who-all- y'all see and listen to on Star Talk.
On a positive note, perhaps Mr Degrass Tyson would consider a second show with a more serious tenor. I was shocked at the negativity in some comments dissing Chuck and the lighter side the podcast. That encourages people to laugh and listen. It’s it a university class, it’s a very entertaining science podcast👍
Lay off the snake oil
I used to like this show but it’s jumped the shark. The latest episode is basically just an ad for the guest’s “age reversal” supplements. Which have NOT been conclusively linked to any of the benefits he claims. Mice and human physiology is very different. The fact that you took this guy at face value without pushing back on his highly dubious claims is a huge red flag.
Cold weather evs
Love the podcast my concern that you did not address for us Canadians who live in cold weather climate is the batteries do not hold their charge as well is there anything being done to address this as nothing was mentioned about this and winter is very long and cold in Canada
