Wow, I just rediscovered this podcast. I used to listen a long time ago. And it’s nice to hear that it’s basically the same. Good show. But could be better. My advice, 20% less Justin (volume and speaking) 10% more Blair, and 10% more objectivity. IMHO. Then this would be a great show. No offense Justin, love you, sure we’d get along, but thinking about the over all quality of the show
Good science but not very well presented

I want so badly to like this podcast, but the female host is obnoxious (criticizing Allie Ward, REALLY??), uses weird voices, and interrupts a lot. Presenter tip: Sarcasm often doesn’t land well. The chatty banter could work, but I would strongly prefer the material shared in the style of Science Friday. I’ve never heard Ira Flatow sounds unprofessional or rude. (And he uses “comprise” correctly.)
Great diversity of content and love the long length

Justin-you nailed it. Thanks for the cautionary song. “Ghost Riders in the Sky” is my favorite song of all time. I ain’t even mad. You done good. La and the Gang
