Would like this podcast but the narrator can’t keep from expressing feminist views. I don’t mind a fair analysis but do not favor opinionated accounts.

Hi! You have the best kind of crazy weird podcast but you can still be surprised by the zigzag things and I also like how you can learn from the past Hi I’m just writing this because

This podcast is a pleasure to listen to and you don’t have to wade through any blah blah blah to get to the pay off. You learn what was learned before you know it and you’re not left asking yourself pertinent questions about the facility or the validity of the knowledge. The host has a pleasant voice and makes an immediate connection with listeners.

Great information and easily digestible!

Another podcast from a far left, feminist journalist looking for her 15 minutes of fame. Research on topics covered is occasionally lacking and sources are never adequately cited. Ms. Hansen’s political and social views spill over into the topics covered which ruin the podcast (for me). I love the concept. If they were to get a different host, I’d probably give it another go. I really tried to like this podcast. If you want informational, mind-stimulating podcasts that are light and funny, check out the HowStuffWorks podcasts. I find them fair, balanced, and well researched. This week I learned what podcast to avoid.

Not the best party soundtrack, though. Why?

Please God stay out of politics

For the last several months I have listened to this podcast and found it entertaining. Today I started to listen to Ms. Hansen’s podcast about low carb diets (a subject for which I have fair knowledge) and she immediately equated a low carb diet with an exclusively high protein diet. She is so wrong that I could not finish the podcast from the mischaracterization...the same load of garbage the American Heart Association and the American Diabetes Association have buried the public. My question try counting the number of deaths from following the AHA and ADA recommendations. I was almost one of the body count. DO YOUR RESEARCH FIRST!

Hansen appears unqualified to report on science. After gagging through her report on "nucular" energy -- the word is NU CLE AR -- I decided to give her more time. Then she had Capt Cook "circumVENTing" the globe! Nuff said.

Topics cover a variety of areas of life. Great!

I enjoy and learn interesting things in a short but well delivered way. Well done. Keep it up

Out of The Week offerings this is by far the best of the bunch. Listen regularly and enjoy immensely. Overall well done.

I absolutely love this podcast.

A pleasant way to learn new things

Time here, is the key. TWIL is informative, to be sure, but more importantly it is concise. This is the perfect podcast for those looking to add a few wrinkles to their brains while on the go. Highly recommended.

I LOVE fun facts. This podcast is basically every fun fact of the week in one convenient place. I am a new listener but I love this podcast.

I always learn something new that I haven't read or heard about elsewhere. The podcast is short enough that it's easy to keep up with and has great variety in the topics presented. I almost always get online afterwards to learn more or to send something I heard to a friend. This is quickly becoming my favorite podcast.

With pretty much everything else having devolved into brainless listicles, nauseating political coverage, and fatuous celebrity puff pieces, it's a relief to hear short, self-contained podcasts that teach you something.

What more can I say? The pods are short and sweet, the topics are always interesting, and the information is concise.

This is a great podcast. The bite sized episodes are perfect for listening during a break at work or school, and the topics covered are pretty interesting. I'm looking forward for more!

The best podcast! Wonderful voice and so informative!

These are perfect little bits of wisdom that make the world a fuller place.

A fantastic podcast - interesting topics expolored in easily digestable format!

You've got to feed your mind something and this little podcast is a great choice. Hansen strings together a couple of topics in each episode and manages to be quick and in-depth at the same time. Upbeat, off-the-beaten path and fun.

Quick and easy way to learn some interesting stuff. Lauren is great!

Lauren has an amazing ability to capture your attention! Great show!

What a fantastic podcast! Well worth the listen

Excellent and well thought out podcast. Refreshing take on the news. Highly recommend!

This is a great new podcast if you're into learning new and interesting things. The host is entertain and the episodes so far have been interesting. I would recommend this podcast to pretty much anyone.

Always interesting

Great podcast- a good way to learn a little something on my print commute. Very well produced and curated.

Really have been enjoying this podcast. I'm always looking for good podcast for my commute to work. These are nice and short but packed fully of interesting tidbits of information from science, social science and pop culture. Reminds of the segments on NPR from the social science commentator Shankar Vendentam with a bit more quirk and pop culture thrown in.

I love these mini deep-dives!

Lauren Hansen learns more in a week than most learn in a lifetime, and shares it all with us with elan and verve.

I love the voice of Lauren Hansen

A great p-cast with a lot ideas.

It's always entertaining and covers a wide range of topics

great way to keep your mind alive.
