Long time listener. I love all the episodes, and before I found your podcast, I wasn’t able to ingest such a large volume of information. You guys should do an episode on Stonehenge! Thank you for all your work.

I found this podcast about a year ago while searching for something new and interesting to listen to. All I can say is, no matter the subject, Josh and Chuck manage to keep it interesting. Even the most dull subjects they manage to keep my attention. Great job guys and keep it coming!

I love this show and listen every day. I’ve been wanting to gain more general knowledge and this was perfect. I wish there wasn’t as much leftist talk (mostly of lgbtq nonsense/sensitivity) as that ruined the episode on estrogen and testosterone. that has hindered a few episodes but it’s a good show and there’s always a skip button

I really love SYSK & look forward to every new or old episode! You two crazy guys explain complex information so just about anyone can understand & someone super smart will not be bored, along with fun banter. I learn something new all the time. Thank you & keep going strong! Stay safe 💞

I’m Bella, and I love listening to your show! I listen to it whenever I get the chance. I LOVED the peanuts episode! Thank you so much for them all !

Where did these two go to college? Obviously somewhere where doing homework, let alone doing it well, was not a priority. Seriously, with the internet they could do the most basic research on their various topics with 5 minutes of work, but they repeatedly make so many errors of ignorance it is astounding. I don’t get it.

I grew up close to Lake Superior, and was very familiar with the story of the Edmund Fitzgerald, but listening to these guys talk about it made it clearer that ever. Been listening ever since.

This podcast is my favorite podcast I love the murder episodes but I like them all (you should do a podcast about codes or cyphers) (I'm 11)👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😤🔪🪓🔫💣😱

Err something like that… five stars!

I’ve always thought hitch was taken from hitch a trailer to a vehicle. And hike, as in taking a hike. So...one hitches a ride or hikes the distance.

I find the stories interesting, but the hosts comments make me cringe and roll my eyes quite a bit. Not for me.

I’m gonna start by saying I’m sorry your getting all those bad reviews but I personally love all the cool episodes. I’ve listened to the ‘how license plates work’ at least ten times! In fact, I’m listening to it as I’m typing my review! I’M OBSESSED!!!!!!!!!! Quick tip,maybe get a little quicker on starting the podcast, don’t get me wrong, i love all the other things you guys talk about. But maybe edit those small talks in after the episode is done and finished.Again, Josh and Chuck, I’m sorry your getting these horrible reviews. I fall asleep to these so they are really relaxing! Also, to whoever complained about the rock music ads, ITS NOT THEIR FUALT! THEY DON’T CHOOSE YOUR ADS!!!!!!!!!! P.S. you guys should do an episode about the history of leaving painted rocks in parks and how it started. It would be really interesting!

This show is great. Love Josh and Chuck. Their earnest and down to earth explanations of concepts are brilliant, and the tangents and banter make this show an absolute joy to listen to.

It’s the best pod ever

Why do you hate science so much? You lose so much credibility when you do shows like this.

While these gentlemen seem intelligent generally, their willingness to bow to the pressures of the political and woke thought police renders everything they say suspect. Facts are facts no matter who complains about them, and qualifying them for the PC mob exposes the spinelessness of these otherwise seemingly good people.

Love the podcast but they are completely owned by the libs. I dare them to do an episode on gender. They won’t because they answer to the woke mob.

I always am interested in the topics these guys cover, but my interest is immediately diminished by the constant self-deprecation that is so over the top they can’t even cover an actual topic. No bueno.

I can’t believe I haven written a review yet. I started listening in ~2017, and have been a fan ever since. Probably my all-time favorite podcast. I’m easily annoyed by a lot of podcast hosts after listening to hundreds of episodes, but not with SYSK. This podcast is a must. Great hosts and great content, and a great format. Update: still the f&$:@/? best.

Why to much bad information here… poorly researched.

Somebody under the name reality strikes back wrote a review on Tuesday. I just want to say that they are and idiot. Have a good day

This is an amazing podcast and I like how they sometimes chat and T talk casually about things they did. It is a good fact based podcast and with good personality to. And to the guy that gave the one star review why don’t you at least listen to a couple more non political podcasts and think it over agian. 👍

Worked there as a biologist in the 70s…man, it was a fabulous place. So was Florida back then. Disney came in and ruined it all. The underlying story about the devastation Disney had on FL is shocking. Do an episode on that little gem. Dare ya.

I have been listening to Josh and Chuck since day one. SYSK is the Platinum standard by which all podcasts should strive to meet. Yet, not one has the research and analysis required to reach SYSK’s level of performance. As a storyteller myself, I could only imagine to be honored to one day be given the privilege of working with the juggernauts of the podcasting community. After my second retirement (retired Army, now 8 years from retiring from a DoD agency), I would love to spend my time researching and writing for these two podcasting geniuses.

I love your guy’s show I listen to you guys so much!

I love listening to you and you guys are so fun and the jokes are top notch. I love it how you also talk about your lives. I wish I could rate higher but there isn’t a 999 quintillion button. Thanks so much I love your podcast. I sent you an email but sadly it didn’t get read. -Ari age 12 from portland Oregon

Good podcast but the ads are so many and so long it is so irritating

There is sure to be something you like, something you don’t like, something that fascinates you, something that sends you on an information quest, something that makes you angry, something that makes you laugh, something that makes you think…..something for everyone. Great show!

Where are all of the episodes since 2008?

I listen to this podcast every night, and I’m still listening to it you guys do such an amazing job. Could you keep up on doing the alien episodes? And also good luck on that farm. It’s gonna take some money. Please put this in a feed preferred alien episode. Thank you.

You are whole hearted kind intelligent people. It makes me laugh seeing the hate comments saying your woke or getting information wrong. Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion and you guys just react honestly during your stories, and that bugs people. Anyways, always a pleasant and informing listen. Thank you for your hard work. Hey! People offended or annoyed by their reactions or modest stances, go listen to a trashy show instead, there is plenty out there. 😘🫡

Was interested in the Philly bombing episode and the whole episode is just Josh trying to victimize the MOVE members (abusing kids and harassing the community for years intentionally btw & then armed themselves and built a bunker) Just give the facts? This clearly isn't cut-and-dry (see Chuck rolling his eyes at all Josh's comments), so stick to the facts Based on this podcast, I can only say I wish they bombed these freaks earlier

Full of misinformation and biased opinions

And you babble on like idiots

Interesting and digestible info by thoughtful and humorous presenters. Really enjoyed the one on dyslexia.

The best way to describe this show is going through a Wikipedia or YouTube rabbit hole finding and researching interesting topics. Not only is it limited to academic topics but also it has many more pop culture topics to choose from ( the peanuts podcast is my favorite). Well worth the listen.

2 dudes talk about topics they clearly get their info from on Wikipedia. Strong pass. Just pick a topic you’re interested in and read the wiki page. You’ll get the same information without the ignorant drivel.

Great information, but stop with the useless interjections!! It interrupted the information that was being given and was irritating. Otherwise enjoyed the pod.

I definitely have this and would get the urge to poop in the library as a little kid. I also get the same urge in a wood paneled room. I never thought much of it until I learned that this was a phenomenon. I guess there’s not much else to say or do about it, but I’m looking forward to the day that scientists figure out exactly why this happens!

…literally emitted so much wokeness (ie the hosts thinking they’re St Peter at the Gates judging the conscience of a vital American icon) it made a permanent 👎🏼 mark w/in my cranium. Anyway I just listened to an episode of History Daily that did Geisel justice (shocker? 🤦🏼‍♂️) and it aggravated that 👎🏼 mark. And I’m unfollowing this dumb—s pod.

I’ve been listening to this podcast for years, and it is legitimately what I listen to if I ever feel really depressed, or anxious. I think it’s very important to challenge yourself to learn new things, and support hosts who are just nice people. They’re so supportive of one another, and make it a priority to be inclusive and kind towards all. Josh and Chuck are two regular dudes, with amazing chemistry, and they’re here to help you learn some stuff. For those of you who don’t like chatter, or jokes in informative podcasts, this probably won’t be your favorite show, but I’d at least encourage you to give it a try. They’re truly putting something good out into the world.

I've been listening for years. They joke about never hearing Geri, but she’s the voice that says the name of the show! She’s been heard in every episode. Don’t buy into their lies. 5 stars!

And I love these guys. They are what men should be. Funny. Sensitive. Knowledgeable. (but don’t have to know everything) Great role models. And teachers. And presenters. This is a perfect podcast. Some more interesting to me personally than others but then I concentrate on their great relationship and voices that I find wonderful as well. The world is full of wonder and these guys find it!

You guys are awesome

Was so interesting. Recommend the Roly Poly one

I learn so much listening to these guys. Great podcast!

I love the variety and every time I go on a podcast binge, these guys are top of the list. I’ve built so much IKEA furniture with this podcast in the background, it’s a comfort show.

I love these guys, I learn so much.

Just 2 nice dads talking about science and history! I especially like their true crime type episodes because I feel like they are much more respectful and down to earth than a lot of true crime genre podcasts

Oh man. I just discovered the speed mode in the lower left corner of the app. I first set it to .75x by accident and thought I must be having a stroke. But then my husband confirmed the super slow mode and we love it! Just listening to two guys chatting about something weird after toking or tipping a few 😉 Love it even more!!!
