Great exploration into weird and wonderful questions and internet related questions. Whenever I see a new ep drop in my feed I listen to it straight away!
Really loving this show. So many episodes leave me thinking “I really want to know more about that!” (And then going out to find the book or other work of the guests)
I have enjoyed many an episode of Search Engine but I really appreciated the double episode on Venezuela. Thank you
No. Eating noises are vile and sharing them on loop without warning should be punishable by life.
This podcast tickles the curious part of my brain. Super interesting and random topics (like my search engine queries), and stories researched and told really well. 100% recommend. I found it in a random Reddit comment, and my god I wish I could find the redditor who recommended it so I could thank them.
