Always informative, often entertaining. Great selection of regulars with a variety of interests and expertise. Also great guests with and Australian focus.
Nice to hear science news from an Aussie perspective and with a good dose of humour. Great work!
I have enjoyed this podcast b/c it is very funny banter about science stories but there is also a serious edge to the analysis. It's proof that you can be amusing and entertaining as well as giving the science content its due. Highly recommended weekly listening.
