    Good podcast overall
    What with the annoying noise between show and ads? It;s enough to make me unsubscribe. I have very sensitive ears.

    Sperm Counts
    Natureā€™s way of controlling over breeding which is the primary cause of the decimation of the earth. Its a great sign. No harm no foul.

    Shame on you BBC
    Shame on you for having Qanon commercials on your platform. They are a horrible conspiracy group spreading hate and fear and foolishness. Shame on you
  • fixtion fan
    Very well done.
    For me, I love the tone of this series of episodes. Great information put forward by folks who are obviously well educated on the topics, and who are serious people but the show doesnā€™t feel overly serious - feels fun and informative but doesnā€™t make ya feel preached at or lectured too. Kudos to the narrator(s). It canā€™t be an easy task to find the tone they achieve here so I sincerely appreciate what they have created. I never write reviews but I love these sorts of topics and rarely find pods I can stand listening too.

    Great
    I love the information I get from this podcast. The speakers all have nice voices and the research is tops. Iā€™m glad I subscribed.

    Disappointed in the COVID19 episode
    Listened hoping to learn more about COVID19. Unfortunately, the majority of the episode was leftist ranting from Lisa Cooper of Johns Hopkins University in the U.S. and others about the usual socialist perceived ills in society. Only a very small fraction of this episode answered logical questions from the listeners. Miss Cooper astoundingly gave New York as a ā€œpositiveā€ example of dealing with the crisis, when they lead in the number of deaths! In the future, listeners would like to hear from knowledge experts in relevant fields, not administrative staff with some political message to rant about ā€” pretty useless for the listener.

    Highlighting Scientists works
    I love that your using time to highlight scientists their jobs and have to talk on their point view. Keep them coming.

    Love
    Love the Fly Gal, learned so much from it.
  • WWaldenHenry
    Great Stuff
    Easy to listen to, informative, not so stiff, fun yet serious.
  • Efbrazil
    Not dumbed down or boring
    ā€œSense of timeā€ is a good episode to start with.

    Consumers are not solely to blame for plastic issues
    Overall, I am enjoying this podcast and really appreciate the episode exploring the history of plastic and how and why it became so widely used. Itā€™s so much more interesting and useful than simply hearing for the millionth time how evil plastics are. However, the conclusion of the episode on plastic recycling had an overly simplistic viewpoint offered that itā€™s the job of the consumer to make sure that companies do a better job of recycling more and manufacturing less. Way to let government and corporations off the hook! There was also no argument made against Unileverā€™s standpoint that they wonā€™t simplify their packaging because they believe in ā€œconsumer choiceā€. Again - blaming bad environmental practices on the individual.

    Excellent
    Excellent as always

    It could be Emma Thompson
    I think Dr. Fry could possibly be Emma Thompson: smart, funny, irresistibly eloquent. She and Dr. Rutherford have such excellent banter, I often listen to subjects in which I have absolutely no interest. This is excellent-

    The Elements Series -- Yesss !!
    Great podcast, this one always in my feed. The episodes about individual elements are terrific, always a surprise discovery, an unexpected angle. And of course...more Rutherford and Fry please. Many thanks and keep up the good work - lots of us are listening.

  • solong4now
    A little of everything
    I love science related podcasts and so many great ones come from the BBC and this one has introduced me to a few that I missed. Covering a wide variety of subject and always thought provoking it's always a half hour well spent.

    Annoying commentary
    Try to be objective with your opinions. It was annoying to hear that same man talk over the woman over and over. You all can do better.
  • incognito82
    Really great podcast
    I love the narration, story line and the delivery. It is not trying to be a mini TV program, which I like.
  • studmuffin2269
    This show is all over the board
    It goes to a ton of different place, but it's usually pretty good.

    I recently listened to the podcast on amphibian decline and it was really good; very thought-provoking and informative on this important issue.
