Entertaining Brain Food!

This pod is so good! Super entertaining, engaging, and educational! The subject matter is all stuff you didn’t know you needed to know! I would categorize this podcast under self-improvement and science! Highly recommend especially if you are somewhere like work and need something that can keep your attention without requiring it.
