    A+ homerun podcast
    Very smart but down-to-earth co-hosts. Seriously amazing guests. One of the only podcasts whose archives I even find worth going back and listening to, it’s that good. Up there w Entitled Opinions as an all-time great podcast.

    I came for the poison, fire and space noise
    While certain topics were more appealing (see above) to my somewhat dastardly nature it didn't take long before I became enchanted with the podcast as a whole. Keep it up!(bingeing on episodes as we speak so hope more will be up soon)
  • refugeewc
    Quickly becoming my favorite podcast
    Enjoyable and informative discussions from Stanford's earth sciences department plus the great guests they bring on. I look forward to these podcasts more than the npr and technology podcasts I follow.

  • Kateo123abc
    Fascinating, high-quality episodes
    I've listened to several episodes and each one has been full of fascinating content that was produced and presented in a way that made it easy and fun to listen to. In particular, the Sounds of Space episode was one of the coolest things I've heard all year!

  • Just A Lay Cook
    Coffee with a side of SCIENCE!
    I take my morning coffee with a side of Gen. Anthro. It's the perfect serving size of science to start your day. Not only does this podcast feature conversations with profound thinkers, the producers--particularly the incomparable Miles Traer--approach these complex topics from delightfully imaginative and unexpected angles. If you're missing this, you're missing out.
  • Love-Tennis
    Storytelling, science, and perspective
    Perfect podcast to seem smarter to friends and coworkers! They make current science topics totally approachable with a blend of history and current events all mixed together. GenAnthro hosts do a great job of finding incredible people to interview and fascinating stories too tell, with a "so what" that really makes you think. Not just another interview show - they do a great job of crafting a story and explaining cutting edge science for everyone.
  • Clabsforglobes
    One of my favourites
    Generation Anthropocene is one of my favourite podcasts around, becuase it forces me to think differently about the world and the planet, and the past/present/future.
  • Scoutjess
    Most interesting class ever!
    I absolutely love this podcast! So many topics but all brought to you with a lot of excitement, energy and information. It's like taking a 20 to 45 minute class and learning tons about our earth, etc. There's certainly something here for everyone.
  • JessssssAnderson

    Deep thoughts on our future on the planet
    Gen Anthro consistently makes me go "huh, wow!" and "really? Cool!" Every episode takes a fresh look at what it means to be human today on a changing planet. The topic is so central, the interviews so fascinating, and the hosts so curious and charismatic, that I can't wait for each new episodes. Definitely one of the most informative, fascinating, and awe-inspiring podcasts out there. If you want to understand the world and where it's headed, this is the place to come and settle in for some blow-your-mind intelligence.

    Educational AND fun!
    I studied environmental science in grad school and since graduation, I've been looking for a way to stay connected to a wide range of timely and relevant environmental issues. Gen Anthro fits the bill - it's educational, informative, and fun to listen to. The hosts take complex topics and break them down in a way that's easy to understand. I can't recommend the podcast enough, for both the academic and non-academic audience.

  • hello!!!!?
    Informative and Interesting!
    Generation Anthropocene brings a unique perspective to environmental topics. Instead of a stodgy science podcast, or a depressing overview of environmental changes, Generation Anthropocene has a creative storytelling approach. Great for learning new about new topics and for getting a new perspective.

    Highly recommended
    This is a well-researched and lively podcast that keeps coming out with something different every week. It’s another one of those NPR-like science podcasts, but without the stuffiness and arrogance often found in the others. I look forward to each episode. Highly recommended.
