Popular Reviews of Starts With A Bang podcast

I want so badly to like this podcast. The topics are fascinating, and the audio quality is great. However, the interviewing style drives me nuts, to the point that I sometimes stop listening in the middle of an episode. Siegel is great at explaining science concepts but often doesn't let his guests shine. He asks them questions that are prefaced by basically the entire high level summary of everything he knows on the topic, or will summarize their work for them and then ask what they're working on, leaving them to go basically "yyyep, that about covers it." Some parts are fascinating and some parts feel like watching someone get cornered at a conference social and 'splained the same talk they gave earlier that day.
