Customer Reviews
One of the best!
I’ve been listening to Bloggingheads.tv for well over a decade. It’s a phenomenally good source of intellectual stimulation and discussion.
Less sensationalism, more thinking.
One of the pioneer in podcasting, and still going strong.
Highly recommended !

Listened to John Horgan’s interview with Michael Shellenberger. He is an iconoclast and I was game to hear his arguments but this was a bit dull. Everyone is arrayed against him, in his telling, and compromised and out to get him. He wrestles with a scientifically and morally complex bundle of issues and yet is apparently plagued by few doubts. Perhaps this lets him sleep well but it is not such interesting listening. I am a fan of Horgan’s writing and show, but this was disappointing enough that I departed half way through.
