GLOBAL WARMING CAUSES EVERYTHING
Gaya Vince interviewing scientists just about anything always suggests that ‘the cause’ is global warming, even though the interviewee is not jumping to that conclusion. So annoying, she should LOSTEN to answers not suggest them.

Great show
Great show.

Propaganda
These guys are great at it. I have to give them that. I thought listening to the news from another English-speaking country would provide keen insight but I was wrong. Someone needs to tell these guys that the issue of global warming was changed. The name was changed to climate change. That’s because global warming has been widely debunked. I doubt that anyone on this show is concerned. You have however, delegitimized yourselves.

Yes, where is Adam?
Marnie is good, but Adam is why I tune in. Update 17 May- Have I missed an announcement? Is Adam on leave or has he left the program? June 12 - Is Adam ever coming back? Why has there been no announcement? Not the same show anymore. Unsubscribed for now and will keep reading Adam’s books. So...somehow I missed that Adam had Covid! Bad case as well. Terrifying. Then he was back and now he’s gone again. I can’t keep up. I just hope he is well. The new guy sounds a lot like Adam, but now it’s someone different every week. I give up. There is nothing distinct about this program anymore. The same topics are covered elsewhere with more experienced presenters. This podcast has gone from five to two stars.

Favorite science podcast
This is a must-listen podcast. I enjoy all the different hosts and contributors, but Marnie is excellent.

Where’s Adam?
Adam is the main attraction for me. It’s a five star podcast with Adam. Two stars with Marnie.

Excellent science podcast
One of my favorite science podcasts. Covers all kinds of research areas, with a suitable level of technical detail. I’m looking forward to when there is less covid coverage! Adam Rutherford is great, if you like him as a presenter you should check out his books on genetics; he narrates the audio editions.

All episodes
Brilliant, clear and concise, a must listen for scientists and non-scientists

Latest Studies
This is a show where the host, Adam, chats w/ scientists about their latest work, studies and scientific papers. Sometimes there’s also segments where a journalist from BBC’s science desk does some remote reporting from outside the studio — at a big academic conference or new science museum exhibit, for example. This show can get rather technical and can be a bit dry but it’s a must for serious science lovers.

Engaging ... best science podcast hands down
Love listening to Inside Science and don’t miss an episode. Adam Rutherford is personable, spot on in choosing topics. Show gets to the heart of the interesting innovation, and puts science in the context of what matters. Props from across the pond!

Great podcast. Very informative

What’s new in science
Quite good (not as good as the elements, backstory or medieval history for fun and profit). This podcast highlights new findings in physics, astronomy, and genetics (less physiology and geology)

Important, diverse science topics
I listen to Inside Science every week. The podcast contains excellent mix of research stories, science policy stories, and coverage of important news events. I like Adam's style and the way he handles some of the trickier topics. Thank you!

Thank you
Always look forward to science from a British perspective. Don’t be surprised to hear from US scientists as well from around the world

Propaganda
I’ve only listened to 1 episode so far and the episode was full of nonsense and propaganda. If NASA is involved don’t blindly trust it.

Wonderful series!
I look forward to Inside Science every week! It is informative, thoughtful and current. The host and guests are well prepared and know their science!

Light and refreshing
In line with the BBC's policy of having actual scientists present its science shows, Adam Rutherford is a biologist, geneticist and science author. His manner is lighthearted and approachable but he certainly knows his onions. The podcast is a great way to stay up to date with developments in science with just enough detail to make a reasonable evaluation of the material without becoming mired in the details.

Nice chap but ...
I used to really look forward to Quentin cooper science show and was never disappointed. The new presenter is pleasant but the show has lost its edge and become a podcast of mediocre quality. Really sad.

Disappointing
A pale shadow of Material World, which it has replaced. Asking scientists how much science was involved in a policy decision is hardly an incisive critique of the role of science in our world today.

Material World it is not...
I'm saddened that this is what replaced the splendid "Material World" podcast with Quentin Cooper. "Inside Science" lacks the appropriate amount of puns and made me fall asleep when I listened to it in the evening. That never happened with Cooper's science program. However, better "Inside Science" than no science...
