RATING
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.
Hands down, this is my favorite podcast of all-time. The level of production and storytelling is amazing. This is my desert island podcast.
Start from the beginning and go through. An amazing experience. Fascinating information and enthralling sound artistry.
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.
This has become so disappointing. It’s turned into a poorly-structured, puerile, undergrad podcast, dumbed down to the point that it’s embarrassing. The commentary is punctuated by infantile baby-talk, valley-girl style speak (like, like, like, TOTALLY, like, like, like), annoying and pointless interjections (the annoying woman who kept singing bits from the Lion King-that was utterly cringe-y), vocal-fry….The presenters talk over each other, and the narrative is a scrambled mess. The presenters also need to either let guests speak, or if they (insultingly) don’t think the guests have a good enough grasp of the English language, do some quality editing based on some eliciting information from the guest. I don’t think I can listen to Radiolab again.
Consistently excellent. Potentially the best podcast being made. They're fairly liberal in what passes as science content though, but still it's fantastic.
Probably the first podcast I truly fell in love with. It continues to amaze and intrigue me with each episode.
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.
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.
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.
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.
My favorite of them all. This 'cast is what got me hooked!
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
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.
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.
Informative to the point where you imagine Sir David Attenborough just nodding in respect.
I very rarely use the Favorite button on my podcast player. I only use it when something in the episode truly moves, mystifies, or fortifies me. I very rarely use it and I even less frequently look back on it. I recently did and was surprised to find it is a near-complete chronological list of every radiolab episode I've ever listened to. I couldn't think of a better way of telling you how enriching this program has always been.
Radiolab is like winter break during college - no matter how many new and amazing podcasts you find, it's always nice to have sometime familiar to come home to. Perfect Storytelling in every way.
