Thoughtful conversations!

Too bad the majority of Americans aren’t as sensible as Sean. He is very knowledgable and inquisitive, the perfect mix for a podcast interviewer. I would love more hardcore physics episodes, but I definitely appreciated the recent music-related episode!

Fire material.

Been subscribed since pretty close to the beginning. Was rerouted here through hardcore history. This podcast is very diverse for the average thinker and material is relayed in a manner which those with little to no knowledge will still be able to understand. Sean continues to impress as a multifaceted individual with overlapping knowledge and skills. I came for the neuroscience and have stayed for basically everything else.
