ScienceBrunch

being introduced to so many scientists (as a scientist and brunch-enthusiast myself) is wonderful! i hope there’ll be more episodes soon!

After watching Oppenheimer and reading the book I wanted to get more information on other important scientists. The Feynman episode was over 45 minutes long and had about 15 minutes of actual surface level info on Feynman and after 5 minutes about an encounter with Jane Goodall (which was actually fun) the podcasters then proceeded with 20-some minutes of calling Feynman “skeezy” because in his 20’s he went to a few strip clubs and hit on girls that were younger than him as well as discussing the idea of separating a person’s private life from their work. Then they finally talk about quantum mechanics for 5 minutes before again returning to calling Feynman sexist for several more minutes and glossing over his Nobel prize like it was a participation award for an elementary school softball tournament. Don’t waste your time here.

I love this podcast and highly recommend it. If you’re looking to start out, my favorite episode is #12, but they’re all amazing! I can’t wait for the next season!

Why has this not been on iTunes #1 chart?! These two ladies are hilarious and informative. It’s like listening to Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Stone if they were best friends and knew a lot about science.
