Customer Reviews
Wonderful Podcast
Full of fact and opinion in equal measure. Listen in every week but have recently discovered the Podcast. Now I have access to so much more. So happy to have found this podcast. Too download from a top show on a top station!
Wealth of Modern day science explained
So informative and presented with genuine love of the subjects. Such a wide range of topics covered from black holes to Phantom limbs and everything in between.
A brilliant wee podcast
This is a brilliant podcast with a funny and well informed presenter who creates a rapport with his interviewees through asking the right questions and seeming genuinely interested in their subjects.
