Stuff You Should Know

Who knew?? I found these podcasts to be very interesting and informative. It's refreshing to know that there are people out there who care enough to inform us of interesting facts that fuel our brains rather than the typical trash that floods us daily. Does anybody really care which celebrity went into rehab this week? This makes for much more interesting conversation around the "water cooler". Not to mention that it makes you sound smart :) Keep up the good work!

My all time favorite podcast. These guys are great.

At first I really liked this podcast and listened to in on my long commute. Josh and Chuck are likable and charismatic. I thought I was learning a lot of interesting things. But then, every once in a while, they would do a podcast on a subject that I am an expert on or have studied extensively. I would be excited to listen to the episode. My excitement quickly turned frustration, disappointment and sometimes anger. It became clear they were very wrong or untruthful. This happened several times, and I had to question if I could believe the stuff I didn’t know. I would still listen for the entertainment factor, but I couldn’t get past their politics. Josh and Chuck are both extremely liberal. If they can put their political spin on any subject, they will. If you believe in the far left agenda, you will love these guys. And let’s be honest you probably don’t care about the truth anyway. For the rest of us, I would avoid this podcast.

The premise is interesting, but the execution is lacking. Rather than have the hosts randomly discuss the topic, the podcast would be much more interesting if they interviewed an expert(s) on the subject at issue.
