Entertaining and informative

Every episode teaches me something new while making me laugh out loud at the same time. There is always the "wow, I never knew that, that's amazing" moment. There is also the intense satisfaction of getting the odd (sometimes literally) answer before Tom or the guests.
I also get to annoy the family by quizzing them on bits I remember.

Very funny, thought provoking and educational

Tom Scott makes for a charismatic host and picks it some genuinely entertaining guests, some I've heard of but many are new to me, so it's nice to hear about what they're doing and follow some of their stuff too. the podcast itself has me guessing and thinking along with them, with a satisfying "aha" moment once I or they figure it out. the subjects are all really interesting. all this comes together to make a fun and unique podcast that keeps fresh, and keeps me on my toes.
