Journal club episodes are amazing, others not worth listening to

So glad you’ve started doing journal club episodes again. After multiple incredibly disappointing episodes this season had stopped listening but am back to (conditionally) recommending this podcast to others. My one request is that you split the feed such that I can only subscribe to the journal episodes, as the others are not valuable to me.

Amazing

Amazing podcast that breaks things down without sacrificing the deep dives
katiesiev

Perfect way to stay informed about the hottest science

I recently left biology research after nearly a decade and was looking for an easy way to keep up-to-date about new cutting-edge research. So glad I found this podcast! I love it and always learn something fascinating.

So good

Great show. Great topics.
center viewpoint

Very intriguing topics!

The host ask interesting & thoughtful questions. The show takes scientific ideas and puts a tech spin on it that allows listeners to view science in a different way. Keep up the good work!!

Excellent...but s l o w d o w n

I’m hooked! Excellent, thoughtful discussion, proving once again how potential insights lie at the intersection of disciplines ripe for the picking. I’m a systems engineer in aerospace and defense so my ear may not be as tuned to the cadence and pronunciation of pharmacological or scientific names; hence, my plea. But keep it up, you are doing great. I’m a loyal but demanding listener!

Spoken too fast

Couldn’t comprehend what was being said due to speed of delivery, slurring enunciation and use of medically technical words (apparently) rendering the episode impossible to follow. Slow it down and so we can evaluate and appreciate the strength of your efforts.

Great podcast!

Fascinating and artful coverage of current events in the bio world! As a subject matter expert, I appreciate the technical details. However, the hosts manage to communicate these details in a clear and concise way without losing the bigger picture. Timely, clear, and thorough! Highly recommend!

Great podcast

I’m not a scientist or in tech, but I love hearing these super smart people talk about their work. The host and guests do a great job of communicating high level ideas in way that keeps me informed, and coming back for more.

Such a delight!

This podcast discusses such timely and fascinating topics in biology, and the hosts are tremendous at their jobs! (Shout out to visible -or audible-women in STEM!) Strongly recommend a listen!

Yes, way too fast

I agree with the reviewer who said it’s just too compressed - I quit after about 5 minutes. Sounds fascinating but unlistenable.
Vanessa980

Way too fast

I couldnt finish the first episode because it sounded as if the interviewees voice was on fast forward.

Definitive podcast on the future of biology

Bio eats world is clearly a take on “software is eating the world” - a quote from Marc Andreessen at a16z that foretold the incredible advances enabled by software. This new “Bio eats World” podcast, enabled by a16z, is predicting similar tectonic scale breakthroughs in biology. The first episode, the biology of aging, gives remarkable arguments that indeed, aging itself may be able to be slowed. The discussion gives cogent evidence from some of the greatest biology experts. Looking forward to hearing about the next breakthroughs! I’m hooked!!!
