Amazing

I love this podcast! Sammy does an amazing job on not talking over her guests, and she is great at keeping the conversation going. I’d love to see new episodes!

Phenomenal

I love this podcast! It’s so interesting to listen to, and she has so much wisdom, and is very self aware, which is really nice to see. She also covers topics like anxiety, which is a breath of fresh air to hear talked about. Would recommend!

OMG

I just found this podcast and I found the episode with Neil DeGrasse Tyson. He said there aren’t many astrophysicists. That’s my dream job. You don’t hear many girls saying that. I got lots of books this Christmas. Two of them are by Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Great podcast.
