I have been a Radiolab fan for more than 15 years. The show has been a part of my life. I have shared it with my kids and with friends. Unfortunately since the departure of Robert from the show, and now Jad, the show has crashed. The new generation is loud and obnoxious. They are more interested in listening to their own voices and making private jokes than in reporting a particular subject or listening to their interviewees. It is really very sad to see radiolab go extint.
Simply the best-made podcast ever. I happen to love science, but with their storytelling techniques and their sound-recordings of everything, even things impossible to record (color spectrum), they could probably do a show on some boring economics topic and I'd be hooked.
I LOVED this podcast a few years ago. The CRISPR episode got me into listening to podcasts and I immediately binged them all. There have definitely been great epsiodes these last couple seasons, but the magic seems to be fading. I miss the more science heavy awe inspiring episodes I guess. Although, the show is evolving recently and I'm excited to see where it goes.
Consistently excellent. Potentially the best podcast being made. They're fairly liberal in what passes as science content though, but still it's fantastic.
This show can be good and can be... too filled with noise in both the sound effects and the host's droning about matters that they frequently do not seem to understand with any type of depth.
Great stories, but sometimes the delivery creates mountains out of molehills to keep the audience engages. Still one of the best produced audio-shows I've heard
Radiolab does a fantastic job of storytelling on unusual topics. This is for people who are curious and want to learn more about our minds and our world.
Radiolab will always be one of my favorite podcasts. The stories are very well thought out and the production quality is high. I'm always learning new, random things through Radiolab that I never would have considered otherwise.
Used to be amazing. Now it can't stay out of politics. Used to be an escape. Now it's just a reminder of everything around me already. It's a shame. Truly a podcast that has lost it's way, likely pressured by those who must deliver their views in every other sentence.
The podcast that made me love podcasts. One of the absolute best storytelling shows out there. Deeply researched, bold, with some of the best sound editing in the game. Radiolab is an all-time great show, and an absolute favorite of mine.
The best produced podcast there is. Sometimes it comes across as an audio mosaic, which might turn people off. For me this is the top of the mountain production wise.
As fitting these powerhouse public radio shows turned podcast are always solid and filled with grander and joy. Broadcasting journalism at it's finest and such an award winning show.
I really like Radio Lab. Their content is always great and their interviews are often so interesting. Sometimes I find the sound effects, etc a bit too much but overall it is a fantastic show!
