Stuff To Blow Your Mind

Joe and Rob always do an amazing job discussing a wide array of topics from a scientific perspective. They also discuss hidden cinematic gems once a week in their Weirdhouse Cinema episodes. Joe and Rob’s easy banter and interesting angles make every episode worthwhile. I highly recommend this podcast. It will make you a much bigger hit at parties.

My mind was recently wrecked. STBYM is helping me fill a lot of gaps in.

Long time listener. There are so many ads I can’t deal with it. Nearly 20 minutes of ads on a 40ish minute podcast is absurd. I don’t mind some ads; I fully understand this is a free podcast, but the hosts have gone overboard and are greedy. Clearly they don’t care about listeners anymore. The show simply isn’t interesting enough to sit through such an outrageous amount of ads.

I do like the show, but I find myself skipping most episodes because of the HUGE quantity of ads. Each ad break is multiple ads long, and there are NUMEROUS ad breaks, alternating with short spans of discussion. I know ads are how podcasts stay in business, but the balance of ads vs. content here is worse than I’m used to. Of course you can skip them manually, so do give the show a chance and see if the balance works for you.
