Customer Reviews
my current favourite podcast
if you like your comedy current, smart and more than a little abrasive, it just doesn't get any better than this one. these guys drop more laugh-out-loud moments in each half-hour installment than any sitcom, and you'll learn stuff too! what i like best about the amateur scientist podcast is its subtlety. they say something hilarious, then move on. you don't have to sit through 30 seconds of self-congratulatory snickering every time one of the hosts amuses himself. all around amazing podcast, hope they keep pumping them out!
HIllarious
A funny, no holds barred look at skepticism, religion, and popular culture. Some great "off the beaten path" interviews and scads of understated humor that will surely offend some. Maybe a little misnamed as the hosts don't appear to talk much about science. The podcast is more in the spirit of Dogma Free Amerca than a skeptical science show.
Often laugh-out-loud funny
I listen to a lot of science and skepticism podcasts--many of them are excellent. If some are more informative than this, none have made me laugh so consistently and so enthusiastically. Excellent work.
