Listening to the Naked Scientists on a Sunday is as important to me as my Sunday dinner.

I truly enjoyed your "Science on the River" show

Naked Scientists

I truly enjoyed your "Science on the River" show as a literal and figurative trip through the different colleges and disciplines at Cambridge. It was a well-done metaphor that put the stories in an interesting context and gave me a fresh perspective on the varied areas of science and how they interrelate. As always, the show was informative and entertaining, although I have to say that the punts do look a bit tenuous.

Thanks for a great show.

Congratulations on all your hard work!

For all the hard work I know all of you put in, I'd like to pass on some good feeling compliments. It should be assumed that these statements reflect my personal opinion, but my science friends tend to agree-

1) Your podcast is far beyond the rest in quality of content, production, and dare I say personality talent

2) Naked Scientist Podcast is the most attention keeping of all of the podcasts

3) NSP is NOT sensationalist, nor too dorky, or too dumbed down

4) NSP has momentum, but at the right pace, it doesn't rush past important details, but manages to keep things moving.

5) NSP is fun, it's funny, sometimes even kind of sexy, but not in a way that detracts from the stories

6) NSP content is as diverse as I could imagine

7) NSP is just the best -

CONGRADULATIONS ON ALL YOUR HARD WORK!!!!!

oh, and thank you so much !

being in touch with what highly curious and focused individuals are researching out in the world, and having it delivered by a cool group of fun but highly intelligent folks is just a dream come true in podcast listening-

thanks-

What an amazing service your offer!

Hi Naked Scientists

What an amazing service your offer!

I had no idea that you would forward the response to my question "Why do my eyes water when I choke on food".  It's a great idea, because there was a lot of info to take in when you were saying it on the prog.

It's great to know that you prog is still going strong and that you have world-wide listeners.

Great show - get the giggle back!

Hello,

I have been listening to your podcasts for quite some time, now... They accumulate in iTunes until some time when I'm doing something which requires little mental attention (e.g. scraping and painting my house), and then I listen to ten or twenty in a row on my iPod.

The praise:

I also collect podcasts from Science and Nature, and listen to them in the same way. Often, as would be expected, the papers discussed are the same ones used in your podcasts. I have learned to listen to Science and Nature first, and yours second, because inevitably I end up wondering about things which weren't asked by the Science and Nature guys - and then you guys ask just those questions! Or else, just as importantly, point out what you like to call "confounding factors". Thanks!

The complaint:

That little, slightly naughty, female giggle is gone! Every time I heard it, and I mean EVERY TIME, it made me grin. I was reminded of this when I listened to your March 6 podcast about laughter, and heard about how contagious it is, and how just hearing someone else laugh makes us feel better. I'm sure there were reasons to do away with it, and I'm also sure I am not alone in missing it. When I dream about doing things with my computer which I know I'll never get around to, one prospect is to modify all of your podcasts to stick it back in...

Keep up the good work,

Your show keeps me in touch with my science roots!

Having crossed over to the 'dark side' from a Phd chemistry to

finance...your show has kept me in touch with my science roots while an expat over recent years - great job, please don't stop!!

Best wishes,

I always thought science was boring in school...

Just wanted to say how much I enjoy listening to your thought-provoking and fascinating shows! I always thought science was boring in school, even thought I've always been curious about the natural world, human inventions and what scientists have discovered or are working on. You've found a way to peak my interest and keep it there. Thank you!
