Fantastic podcast
#MustListen
Amazing work!!
This podcast saves me from boredom when working long hours in lab. Working in lab is not exactly fun when you have to repeat experiments in minute increments of factors. So Format is just perfect, it is like sitting with friends and discussing a topic (well researched topic) providing me much needed social interaction 😜
I first discovered podcast, then found many many many YouTube videos of Simon.
Keep up the good work guys 🙏
Love your work!!!!! Tomatoes-Tomaatoes :D
I have been an avid follower of your channel, I think I like this style more, it's like two pals talking about something interesting over coffee. This podcast is even better, I can 'feed' my brain while working at office or while communiting. Just perfect :)
Thanks Simon and Daven! Keep up the great work.
