Blått fult träd ,

fantastic and helpful

my favourite podcast. it has given me a motivation for learning like never before. I literally just went on my school website to check what we are going to be working with, and I got excited over physics? that’s crazy to me. I have never enjoyed science before, I have always been more of a history person. but this podcast makes science understandable and enjoyable. thank you.

Theonlypenalive ,

Amazing show

Absolutely love this show! I learn so much while having fun at the same time. Learning more about stuff I had basic knowledge about was the best but learning completely new things is also fun! 5/5 would definitely recommend

mona grinell ,

Perfect podcast to listen to while commuting!

My number one pod for when I want to learn something without having to listen to a bunch of boring bla-bla. Perfect mix of information and entertainment, greetings from a longtime listener who won’t be leaving anytime soon;)
