Missed Opportunity!

Great show, but wish you could have kept pulling on the thread of testosterone and anti aging. Please have this guest back!

Beautiful Combination of Knowledge and Humor

This is by far my favorite podcast ever! Neil and Chuck have great chemistry and are always super funny while being extremely informative. The topics are always really interesting and very varied. Cosmic queries have quickly become a favorite too! Its special episodes where Neil brings experts to answer really interesting questions from the public. This is not just his podcast - its all of ours! Super recommended :)

Always awesome 👍

I've read 3 of Dr. Tysons books and always enjoy his insight and knowledge. Adding Chuck alongside Dr. Tyson is brilliant! The show is extremely informative, entertaining, and easy to listen to!
