Definitely not worth the time. Podcast is too boring white guys.

Wish I lived in an alternate reality where Josh and Chuck are my dads 👍🏻

Their older stuff and their history episodes are great but they sometimes do not do justice to their topics because they are just a bit too simple in the head or they don’t like the subject. Also why have no subscription option to remove ads? Esp if you want to sleep it is irritating

I stumbled across this podcast online while researching an issue one of my students was having. One of the search options was this podcast. While it was a very serious issue, the guys handled it with care and respect. I continued listening to the next episode where they made me laugh and taught me new things. That was 6 years ago- I can’t get enough of Josh and Chuck!

Some things that are not part of common conversation is mundane. This stuff is not. They talk more and reminisce about things I haven’t thought about in a while. Questions in the back of my head and don’t want to google is talked about here.

They mixed jokes and information perfectly

The ads make what would otherwise be an excellent and fun podcast almost unbearable. Short stuff is 50% ads—not worth bothering with. I would gladly pay for an ad free version of this podcast but unfortunately that is not an option.

I love this podcast especially the episode on ADHD

What’s better than roses on your piano? Tulips on your organ.

Your podcast is so informative and interesting and casual. One of my favorites for learning stuff. Thanks.

Love the show and always find new things. Good humans as well, which makes it even better. Thanks for doing good in the times we are in. Forget those who choose not to.

I came across SYSK by serendipity. I found the hosts' voices pleasantly free of jargon and profanity—something rare these days. The topics are fascinating and their way of presenting them is marvelous. I’ve listened to so many episodes that I’m all the way back two years and more. Fortunately for me there are enough to keep me entertained for a long time.

I listened to a few episodes last year and now I’m stuck in a binge! So much great stuff and their chemistry is fantastic.

Objective and factual, if you’re able.

Enjoy these podcasts. Move along nicely and the rapport between Josh and Chuck is entertaining as well as informative. Would have given a 5 except occasionally (very occasionally) they allow some political bias to seep into their conversation, which can be a tad annoying and, I think, takes away from an otherwise flawless performance.

Seems like they put no emotional emphasis on this damned show

Used the be the best podcast on earth, for a long time. Lately, not so much. The subtle liberal views and Trump Derangement inserted into episodes isn’t so subtle anymore. Has it occurred to these people that half of your audience may not support your political bias?

On the latest episode, asassination of Martin Luther King Jr you made a comment early on about how Ross parks kicked off the civil rights movement. That information is incorrect. 9 months before the Rosa parks incident Claudette Colvin was forced to give up her seat on a bus. Rosa parks was just a poster child. The credit needs to go where it’s due. And Rosa parks ain’t it!!!!

There is comfort food, and then there is SYSK. Thanks for the company all this time, guys!

Can you do an episode on Champaign please????

Ya know, if you can wade through all the biased commentary and somehow manage to put up with Josh’s lisp and Chuck’s constant wheezing into the microphone, there’s actually some pretty interesting stuff in here. Maybe one day they’ll do one about run-on sentences.

Hi! I love your podcast and have a suggestion. You should do an episode on “mystery spot California.” If you don’t know what that is, it’s a mountain in California where supposedly gravity works differently. I’ve been there, and I was leaning like 30 degrees the whole time! Anyway, your podcast is awesome, byyyyyeeeeeee!

In a time where fake news and misinformation are common place, these guys do a fantastic job of providing information on topics in an unbiased manner. Their intelligence and talent allow for them to provide this information in a very entertaining fashion. Could not say enough positive things about this podcast. Really appreciate it!

I have loved this podcast for a while now. These guys get along great even when they disagree. Plus I can get my nerd on!

Want to listen so badly but this drives me nuts. Anyone else? :( why won’t production bring it to his attention

Chuck and Josh, Your chicken episode was hilarious. If you think Fowler was funny, get this; I come from a long lineage of Pouliot’s, from French Quebec (we have a family crest with chickens on it) we are poultry workers…

Hi guys… it is the hotel chelsea not the chelsea hotel. And the el quixote signature drink is quite delish. Make reservations

The Simpsons: S1:Ep2 “Bart the Genius” Perfect description of a family Scrabble game. “Kwyjibo” "A big, dumb, balding North American ape with no chin", "and a short temper". Love SYSK!

Topics are interesting and information about it can be learned by listening. Presentation is in dialogue form between two hosts who are not experts but have researched the topic. Pretty chatty format, with tangents and banter, ironic remarks (which can be confusing), material is not always strictly scaffolded, no sound effects.

Don’t see why there are some jerks out there who gave Josh and Chuck 1 star reviews. They’re probably not cultured.

I give you a lot of credit for tackling such a broad & misunderstood subject. I work in a retail pharmacy and we dispense a great deal of these. But more than that I have found relief from symptoms for over 30 years of this therapy. There are many you skipped over but that’s a good thing & beyond the scope of SYSK anyway. I don’t remember hearing cautions that people should see their doctor about these afflictions as antidepressants used the wrong way (especially MAOIs) can be life-threatening. I suspect you will get nasty grams about this topic but as an expert on them I’m glad that you made an honest & respectful attempt. I would’ve added some more info on the manifestations (the professional term is indications) of physiologically-based depression and at least a disclaimer that there many, many, a very great many “companion” mental conditions and some of those are unfortunately misdiagnosed as depression. Warning: not all primary care healthcare providers are qualified to prescribe these - i.e., knowing the differences and how to monitor dosing. In my opinion, listeners need to do their own research, too, about their condition(s). Something you could add - e.g., if this episode becomes a “Selects” - is a reference to legitimate websites or hotlines designed to help people sort all this out (unless I missed it). Another winner for your catalog.

Great podcast but they have the worst ads! Like listening to screeching fingernails on a chalkboard in the middle of the show. Why are they the only show that does it this way??

I’ve been listening to these guys for a long while but the content is starting to lag behind. It feels they are sometimes just reading a Wikipedia article and commenting. Also way too many breaks for sponsors now.

The podcast is enjoyable and informative overall. Josh and Chuck seem to be really likable types and they have a good time doing the program. If one knows very little about a particular subject, this is a great place to start. As one might expect, they rely solely on reading summary articles written by others for most of their information--nothing wrong with this, but if they don't know the subject, it's easy for them to get mixed up. The boys are sometimes a bit sloppy; they mispronounce just about every non-English word/name/phrase (and they occasionally mis-state some facts—but who among us doesn’t ?—which could be confusing for someone who is not already familiar with the subject. I don’t hold that against them, because some of the subjects that they tackle can be quite technical. Still, I enjoy listening and I recommend it to someone searching for an informative and entertaining podcast about "stuff" in general. Josh and Chuck talk to us, not down to us; this is an important feature of their work. (Please keep in mind that I am not very flexible in my opinions, although I’m getting better as I age.) In general, I really, really, really like the podcast and will continue to listen as long as they continue their work.

I so enjoy the variety of quirky topics on SYSK. My reaction is usually, "wow, I never thought of that." The light banter between Josh and Chuck is fun and friendly. Thank you and keep up the good work.

This is a great regular listen and fun way to get relatively deep dives on a myriad of topics. The chemistry and banter between the hosts is a huge draw, but if you don’t appreciate it and their wanderings off topic, this show may frustrate you. Also, both are pretty liberal, and while they try to keep their political views out of the show, occasionally they percolate to the top, as they did when discussing Reagan or DC electoral votes. If you are a liberal yourself or don’t mind that slant, it’s a great podcast

I drive a lot for work. This show is my go to podcast for the entertainment value, plus I learn new things everyday by listening. Josh and Chuck have perfect chemistry and I love their tangents and how down to earth they are.

I have been listening to SYSK for years and it’s a crime that I haven’t give it a review yet. This show is part of the fabric of my life at this point and has provided so much general knowledge.

Doooods. I've been listening to yall for years and thought I was probably learning stuff... But if your Mardi Gras episode is any indication on how you conduct your research for your show, I'm out. YOU EVEN HAVE FRIENDS HERE? How did you eff this up so bad? Ask around, my guys. Boooooo. 👎 Please delete or record a follow up to redeem yourselves pleeeease.

Skibidy toilet is not slang it’s brain rot do not see it.plus more on video games like Garry lawson.

Hi guys! I enjoy the podcast but I don’t know what website Jost is using to look up the 1936 Olympics posters with Coca-Cola but I found them immediately and there’s actually an Olympic pin you can find online so Josh get it together dude google!? Thanks for the fun info. That’s pretty bizarre about Coca-Cola and Deutschland. Keep up the good work! Cheers

Consistently entertaining content. I love the chemistry between you guys. Thanks for all you do.

So great

What a find! Josh and Chuck are so refreshing in their dialogue and their banter back and forth. There are no egos competing for the limelight! The episodes are interesting and cover a wide range of topics. You will love it!

Unfortunately the amount of ads has gotten out of control. It has ruined what was a good, fun, informative podcast.

You guys never back down from a challenge!

LOOOVE this show! Clean and interesting!! You guys should right an episode on the discovery of chocolate in Europe👀

Thank you Josh and Chuck, I learn so much from your show. It is very informative and amusing. This is my favorite podcast. This is a must-listen-to.

the best podcast ever.it’s relaxing and informative. I LOVE Josh and chucks conversations.they are so fun! I also relay appreciate that it’s pretty clean.
