Customer Reviews
High quality
Great storytelling and almost always a fun listen.
So hot right now
Been listening all summer when I heard Nate on the planet money indicator. First episode was the lab mice one. I love every episode and I am combing my way through them. Currently I am listening to the outside inbox do bears hoot. Great podcast you guys should donate too. Keep up the good work!
Not what it used to be
Longtime listener. I hate to say this, but for me, the show has gone downhill since Sam left. I find the new reporting style frustrating and not as well researched as the old episodes, and frequently find myself turning off episodes after a few minutes. Bummer.
