Not as good as it used to be.
This show used to be really good but it lacks the fun and focus it used to. I understand they are trying to go in a new direction but it’s just not as good or interesting anymore

“What up Holmes” best episode ever
This episode was a great history lesson and so thought provoking in free speech and especially in giving me provoked thoughts in applying this information into my personal and professional interactions. Being right of wrong? Who knows? Like you said in the episode, who regulates the marketplace? The search for right or wrong is negated in just participating in the experiment. The hypothesis may not get the expected results. Being open to those results will help the next hyposthesis and then the next hypothesis for the next experiment. Thank you so much!!!!

This is amazing
I really like this podcast and I listen to it all the time. I don’t know any better podcast.

Not what it used to be
Unfortunately Latif just isn’t a good host. He’s extremely condescending to the listener, and it detracts from the reporting. The new direction is a bust.

I’m so sorry
This was my favorite podcast forever. Interesting science and social science. But recently it’s gone waaaaay down hill — what was that last episode abstractly criticizing free speech??

A Deeply Personal Request
Latif talks down to the listener and tells hipster style self-serving jokes. Please remove him from your editorial board or I’ll have to remove you from my top 3 podcasts. Latif makes me literally miss Krolwitch I can’t believe I’m actually saying that...

A different show now.
I loved to old podcast but the new show doesn’t live up to the standards of the old one. I know Jad said he thought he needed to take the show in another direct after Robert left but I don’t like the show anymore. I really liked the wonder of science aspect and the objective social commentary. Now there is not much of either of those things. I’m not mad or upset, just a little sad. I wish the show and the talented people who made it great for nearly 20 years all the best. Good luck with your new direction. I won’t be following you down this new path.

If you like a deep dive rather than a wade....
This is one of the deeper most thought out well produced pieces of radio/podcasting perfection, these folks have really produced a little collection of jewels here. I hope it stays available for the future cuz some are just plain timeless. Like the episode on love, this podcast is goooooodstuf!

From first to worst
Radiolab used to be my favorite. Jad and Robert did interesting shows talking to knowledgeable people about weird, thought-provoking stuff, and used sound creatively to create an aural translation of visual materials. That was the show’s genius masterstroke, typified by an episode discussing color vision that was aurally symbolized by a choir. Now Robert is retired and gone, Jad is trying his best to hand off the show, and we listeners are left to nasally, whiny, high-piched ugly radio voices popping the treble cones in my wireless speakers talking to boring people in their apartments about boring and sad things, with little to no scoring, let alone creative soundscapes that spark new perspectives. Just another wonderful thing in the world that has been 1984ed into total crap no one can care about.

Creative, relatable science content
I just love Radiolab’s philosophy on the delivery of science - the thrill of discovery is always palpable. There’s a heart of humanity and relatability at the core of every episode, with brilliant sound design, storytelling, personality and humour. If you think science is dry and boring, they beg to differ and we their listeners get to immerse ourselves in these beautifully crafted science stories. Every episode is an absolute pleasure.

Any New Podcast Ideas?
Looking for a Radiolab replacementAll I want is a science-based podcast, apolitical, highly entertaining, well-researched and well-reported. Just like the old RadiolabEven something half as good as the old Radiolab will be much appreciated!

Radiolab is the bar.
I love Radiolab. I love their stories rich in content, wide in variety and often deeply profound. Whether it’s a true story about Utah farmers refusing New Yorker’s poop, a terrorist not hijacking the Candid Camera flight, the birth of a Bitcoin or Patient Zero... I relish each new episode and audibly dive in. Hands down, Radiolab is surely ranked top ten globally for quality abs sound production and for me, has set the bar for the audible documentation of life and history.
