    A standout, wide-ranging science podcast
    This has quickly become my favorite podcast. The host’s expertise is physics, including the physics of climate change, and the podcasts on those topic are interesting and revelatory to a lay person. But equally illuminating are episodes on other topics, including finance, economics and sociology. The host brings the same incisive analysis, preparedness and joy of discovery to all these subjects.

    Thoughtful!
    Physical Attraction is a truly thoughtul and thought provoking show. The ideas discussed here aren't what you normally get on the internet, or sadly in the news. Clearly these ideas have been ruminated on for a while before being brought forth. Truly interesting topics from alien life to UBI. Highly recommended.

    LOVE THIS SHOW
    Thomas is as Britishly charming as he is brilliant about how the world works. A delightful listen, couldn't recommend it enough <3

    Many science podcasts are seriously overproduced. They have multiple hosts and feel the need to jazz things up as if they are afraid they're about to lose all their listeners any second if they concentrate on the science. The result is too many jokes, sound effects and banter. Physical Attraction has only Thomas Hornigold and his guests and Hornigold appears very confident that his listeners are tuning in because, well, they dig science and like to learn cool stuff. It's a refreshing change and much appreciated. Listen to this podcast, pay attention and you'll learn things. What a concept.

    The end is NEAR!
    Supervolcanoes, Artificial Intelligence run amok, world ending events? What could be more fun? Love the accent and the focus on natural sciences

    Love it
    Thomas is a great presenter and essayist. This podcast is a great mixture of entertaining philosophy, hard facts, and applied physics. The sort of show that makes you rewind and listen again. Thank you Thomas Hornigold!

    In depth content, easy to listen to
    The host covers subjects in depth, but in a way that's easy to understand.

    Creative, and fun, way to present physics
    This is a fun show that is also educational, or is it the other way around? In any case, the host is very engaging, with plenty of self-depracating humor that makes for a charming way to present physics. If you are looking for deepening your understanding of physics, this is your show!

    An engaging listen
    I'm a former science journo, so partial to the subject matter, but even if I wasn't this podcast features excellent writing and so much enthusiasm. Great listen.
  • @chasingthemind

    Creative idea for a podcast
    Interesting jumping-off point for discussing physics. He makes what could otherwise be dry and boring topics interesting and easy to understand.
  • SMHeasley
    Great show concept, great podcast!
    I really love the concept of combining geeky pickup lines as a jumping off point for discussions of physics. This is a great show for nerdy folks like me. Looking forward to future episodes.
