What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I listen to this nearly every night. My favorite podcast by far. Great set of hosts and shows rotating through. However, I absolutely hate the intro/outro. It’s like it’s included just to wake me back up or make my wife mad. Please replace it with something more relaxed.

Jon Gross · Dec 2021

I like to listen to the 365 podcast when I go to bed or during a Sunday afternoon nap. I have one request, please change the intro/outro music (guitar riffs) to something a little quieter. While relaxing or dozing I’m suddenly shocked and awakened by the loud guitar riffs between shows. Maybe some atmospheric space music. I want to learn about astronomy not attend a Van Halen concert. Astronomy lends itself to a quieter, more introspective mind state. To begin and end the podcast with sudden, loud guitar riffs almost jolts me out of bed and is quite annoying. Otherwise I like the idea of a variety of podcasts like 365. It would be just about perfect if not for the loud music.

Ziggy911 · Jan 2021

Short and educational. My favorite astronomy podcast.

Surgonc · Feb 2024

Main thing is the content which is very good, covers everything from the more complex theoretical physics to basic observational astronomy and everything in between. Sometimes a little too political but overall good. Major issue is the intro and exit music which is a disaster. It's a disturbing and discordant load of crap that must be changed.......PLEASE!
