Very informative

Thank you for enlightening us with the variety of information on each podcast. I started listening recently, went back to the beginning and have a few to go. Well spoken and great way of analyzing topics covered. You have a committed listener, keep up the great hard work!

Finally, a cryopod—and a good one!

At long last, there is a thoughtful, comprehensive, well-made podcast about all things cryonics. I’ve really enjoyed the conversations so far. The topics are wide ranging and yet always come back to issues that are both fun to think about and genuinely relevant to cryonics—that is, they strike a balance between flights of fancy about the future and nature of the mind (always a blast!) and the nitty-gritty of making cryonics work in the real world.

Can’t wait to see where this pod goes! Already looking forward to more conversations.
