The Actual Astronomy Podcast

I really enjoy hearing Shane and Chris geek out on various astronomy topics. As a new astronomer hobbiest I am learning a lot from Chris and Shane’s discussions. The format used of focusing on a couple of topics each show is great for jumping around the back catalog. I really appreciate Chris’ dry humor as well. Keep up the great work guys.

The only astronomy podcast worth listening too.

For beginners and experts alike. The absolute best visual astronomy podcast. Chris and Shane are engaging, helpful, and a pleasure to listen to. I have learned so much from these two. They have taken my amateur astronomy pursuits to places I would never had gone if I hadn't found this podcast!! There is something for everyone!!

One of the very few astronomy podcasts that deals with actually going out into your yard and looking at the stars and planets. Chris and Shane are like a couple of friends who share your hobby of astronomy and we have a couple of chats each week about what to look at and what to get to better see it. The podcast is a mix of what’s going on in the night sky, what equipment is available and how to use it, with some guests thrown in to provide information on related topics such as building your own telescope or promoting dark skies. As a novice astronomer with no one close by who shares my interest, this is a must-listen-to podcast. Thanks guys and keep up the good work! Clear skies.
