There is it’s very fun and entertaining, but there’s one problem example of the first episode they say some curses. But besides that it is really entertaining fun and it will not be like you have to click every five seconds on a new podcast.

Presenting as progressive and tolerant but take every opportunity to be rascist, discriminate and " drag on". Straight white people especially men. The duplicity and hypocracy of these two hosts makes me sick in my ears. It's really a shame because the topics they cover seem interesting. I did my best and got through 5 episodes. Wish I could do more. Toxicity and hate masquerading as tolerance and acceptance. ☠️🫠

Everything is great, but I especially love when Mitch laughs :)

The subject matter is so amazing & are all topics I didn’t know I needed to know about Thank You

Love the intro to the new segment

This is by far my favorite podcast. I have been hooked since 2019! These episodes are funny and informative, and genuinely help me think about issues/topics from a whole new perspective. The hosts are effortlessly funny and this podcast’s humor and coziness has helped me through hard times when I just need to escape from the world for a little bit :) also as a fellow LGBTQ+ member this podcast frames so many issues in contexts that are relevant to me. Again, thank you guys so much!

This pod is funny, educational, and really fascinating!!! I look forward to it every week!

I love this podcast! You guys give the perfect amount of information. Super interesting and entertaining while still being easy and light to listen too every morning. I’ve been listening for years, love you guys💗

I don’t know how I didn’t know this podcast existed! Came across a YouTube video a couple months ago and have been hooked ever since. I love hearing sciencey stuff broken down, especially by two gays!

Even if you email them telling them what mistake they made & cite yourself, they never take the time to address their prev mistakes in future episodes.

Just listened to “Marijuana: what happens when you quit?” Yesterday was my first no-pot-smoking day in 7 years, which prompted me to search “what happens when you quit weed?” Which brought me here! These guys are equal parts f’n hilarious and truly informative. Hearing their journey with marijuana really painted a picture that we’re all experiencing the same thing. Whether we come from the background of Catholic School where we learn that marijuana was created by the devil, or we grew up in public schools where you’re a nerd if you don’t smoke weed; we’ve all found ourselves entranced by its magical effects. Thanks to both of you for the work you put into providing us with information and hardcore belly laughs.

I love learning about science topics, but most science podcasts are just too serious and boring for me. This podcast is both educational and entertaining! I love the little side rants and lighthearted arguments they get into. The topics are also interesting and relevant to life right now. You guys are seriously my favorite!

I know you guys are asking for science pod recs, but THIS is the one for me. I love this pod and have listened to it since before Covid: it’s the perfect mix of making me laugh out loud and also coming out of every episode learning some thing new. You guys feel like my friends, I love you y’all and feel so safe and happy in this little pod bubble. and I really appreciate what you put into this podcast every week it’s my favorite one and I never miss an episode. ❤️❤️❤️

I have been obsessed with this podcast for almost 2 years now and listen to it religiously. Started listening during my work commute but now listen anytime there’s a new episode. I love the lighthearted banter sprinkled into real facts and real world issues. The perfect combination of knowledge and comedy. The “what did we learn this week” portion is something I really look forward to. Thanks Mitch and Greg (and Ernie) for having such a positive impact on my day. Much love! 🥰🥰

I just want to thank you for making this podcast in case you don’t hear it enough! Your perspectives and style (and arguments lol) make science so much more personal and approachable and fun. Thanks for just being yourselves and sharing this show with us!

Thank you guys for bringing me to tears from laughter multiple times. I learn so much and have such a great time doing it. Keep on keepin on 💋😁 P.s. other science podcasts that I listen to besides Sidenote : Startalk, Hidden brain, gastropod, shortwave. All very good, startalk is (almost 😉) as fun as Sidenote. P.p.s. Did y’all know we’re in the middle of a solar cycle? Solar maximum will be 2025 so get ready for that 🥵

Hey guys. I was “expecting” more Science and far less QueerCom. KHF-Albuquerque, NM

You guys are so freakin funny I laugh every time I listen AND I learn so much. This podcast is a definite favorite as I spend most of my day in my car and love to learn something new every time I listen. I feel smarter and happier! Highly recommend.

Listened to your podcast about sugar as well as artificial sweeteners - I’d be interested to have you separate high fructose corn syrup from sugar and see the difference there

I love how fun this is to listen too! This is exactly how I love to talk, so I feel like I’m literally part of the conversation of my people. You two are hilarious and I’m so happy I can learn so many interesting things without hearing a monotone voice telling me them. Thank you for being you guys!!

I love this podcast and have been listening to it for a few years now. Mitch and Greg are so funny and entertaining and I always end up talking about the facts and stuff I learn from the show! Keep up the good work boys!

These two crack me up and make all of the content they share accessible and interesting. One of my fave podcasts for sure.

I love your guys’ banter and silly conversation before the actual topic. It’s my favorite show FOR THIS REASON! It’s nice to step away from the seriousness of the world and giggle and your chats. Don’t be like everyone else. Thank you for your fun and knowledgeable content 💛

I found these guys on YouTube when I was searching for fun science stuff, cause I like to learn stuff when I’m wasting time watching tv. Love the loose convo approach to “the pod”. It’s really like hanging with friends... and I learned during the Pet Peeve episode that Mitch and I share the same “hey why is this trash always in the sink” PP, and our boyfriends hate when we play loudly with our dogs. 😂😂 Anyway, they are AWESOME. They are vegetarian. They love dogs. They laugh, they cry... they drink. They swear then apologize (because they are Canadian 😉). They even respond on Twitter. They are real people. What did we learn this week is my favorite part. So glad they are finally sponsored and now I get awesome discounts on cool stuff 👍🏻👍🏻

This podcast is awesome! It’s informative but also fun! It always puts me in a good mood and I learn something which is pretty cool too!

Been listening for several months now. Best show. Greg, Bad bunny always puts me in a good mood too. Proud Puerto Rican so maybe I’m biased 😂

My fav science guys growing up making a fun podcast!

I loooove Greg and Mitch. I think I’d listen to them talk about anything, but the fact that I’m learning as well is just 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Me and my dad used to watch asap science videos as I was growing up and we loved them!! I had no idea you guys were a couple nor did I know you had a podcast but the topics are so interesting and your chemistry together is great!! I’ll definitely stay tuned for all future episodes- str8 white guy from TN

This is one of my fave podcasts in my feed because it’s so joyful and hilarious. I don’t consume a lot of science content and this is an exception. I have basically no social life over this last round of COVID restrictions and listening to this makes me feel like I’m hanging out with friends for an hour. SAD rn but true. Also, I’m HERE for all the butt stuff because no one else talks about it. Thank you Mitch and Greg!!!!

I love this podcast so much. My favorite thing to do is smoke some weed, sit outside, and listen to Mitch and Greg teach me something I didn’t know. Discovering this podcast has brought me so much joy. Ok love you, bye

This podcast brings me so much joy while also learning. Joy and learning…my favorite things!

Are you low in dopamine like me? Okay, give this podcast a listen!! The diversity in topics keeps episodes educational and interesting, and the chaotic humor leaves me giggling to myself and feeling like I’m chatting with my two best friends. Feeling like crying at work? This podcast will stop the stress response and tears the second you hear the jingle. Having a great week? Awesome, here’s something you can channel that energy into to make a positive difference. I tell everyone I know about this podcast (and YouTube) & it’s a highlight of my week listening to a new episode.

I’m a former high school science teacher turned stay-at-home-parent and I love listening to you both. I used to show your videos in lessons when I taught and now I have a way to stay connected to science. It’s hard when you’re a mom to three girls to stay up to date or have any adult conversation and I feel like I’m in the room with you while I listen (or watch on YouTube). Also, when are we gonna get that episode on cuddle aggression? It’s an interesting topic that so many parents don’t know is a concept!

I’ve been listening to Side Note since 2019 and haven’t missed an episode! Greg and Mitch have such a fun way of delivering information on a wide array of subjects - both science-related and really anything else. I’ve found they can discuss such impactful topics in a sensitive and approachable way, making information accessible to a wide audience and still managing to keep the content engaging and lighthearted. Side Note is an incredibly smart and brilliantly entertaining podcast. Thank you so much Greg and Mitch for never failing to put a smile on my face!

Never listened to podcasts before but this channel makes it so interesting and I highly recommend just giving it a listen you won’t regret it 😊

Ive been listening to this pod for 3 years now and i love tuning into it. greg and mitch are so funeeeeee

hey mitch and greg! i’ve been subscribed to ur youtube channel for years now and started seriously listening to ur podcast since february while working as a research assistant for a bee lab at uc berkeley. u guys are so funny, informative, and have made me fall in love with science again. tysm!!

Kmkkk

Hey Mitch and Greg! I’m a huge fan of your various channels and hope you can do some episodes on space stuff like the ISS, space colonization and Space Force. Also it would be amazing to hear you two chatting with Madeline Sofia from NPRs shortwave science podcast, I think it would be super interesting to hear my favorite science communicators nerding out together. Shortwave did a whole podcast on sea cucumber anuses haha which seems like it could be a good jumping off point for your interview. Keep up the amazing work guys, it’s always a dose of sunshine listening to your new episodes.

You are the best!

Love love love you two and everything you do. Just wanted to leave a little note about a History Channel podcast called History This Week. All of their programming should be like the podcast. In fact, on their most recent episode, the host acknowledged some info the channel and its website got wrong. I think you should check it out. Take care! Randall in Chicago.

I have been following Greg and Mitch and ASAPscience since my college days and I am so happy they now have a podcast that I can listen to as I go through my day job! It’s as if you’re listening and having a conversation with two of your best buddies, Greg and Mitch never fail to make a witty comments and intriguing conversations that make me stop what I’m doing and think as well. Definitely make sure to check out their YouTube channel and support their work! They are wonderful beings and I dearly hope to meet them in person someday!

This podcast is great. Thank you for making learning fun ! Never a boring moment listening to you two. Definitely recommending this podcast.

My best friend who is a science teacher recommended this podcast to me and I am literally obsessed! Such interesting information delivered in an easy to understand way. I want to be best friends with these guys! They are hilarious and so smart and articulate. I love their creativity and commitment to teaching others about such important topics. Greg - I feel you on climate change. Why are not not more people freaking out about this??!! Thanks for doing what you do!

I have always loved their channel and I decided to listen to their podcasts during doing work. It helped a lot. They are really funny and incorporate one of my favorites things ever (science!) in it. You guys are the best.

Dear Mitch and Greg - I check your podcast playlist every day to see if you've dropped a new episode. No pressure, but I wish this could be a morning radio program. I don't listen to the radio but I'd start lol. This is so good! The chaotic energy of your show is my personal brand of humor with my friends. And since I haven't seen them in over a year (pandemic), this show has been a friend to me. This podcast brightens my day, makes me laugh, and teaches me so much. As a straight cis gen milenial man, I didn't know the extend of the challenges associated with entering the science community as lgbtq member - or any other cis hetero dominated space. Thank you for educating me and making me a better person. Also appreciate all of your episodes on race and racism. As a Black man in the States, it's nice to know allies in Canada have my back. Would love for you guys to do a podcase on the science of mass-incarceration. So much to unpack there. Ps. first time ever leaving a review on the internet or subscribging to a podcase. The thought of subscribing literally gives me anxiety because I worry that I'll get spamming messages notifying me every two seconds of new content. But seeing how this (sadly) isn't the case, I've subscribed! In solidarity, Anxiety subscriber

Ever since I was a child I would always have to poop when I went to the library. Now I learned I have pooping pals all over the world. 💫

I’ve been watching your YouTube videos for SOOO long, and your podcast is just as good! I like how it’s unedited conversation, rather then a script of facts.

I love the podcast not only do I listen to the podcast I also watch their videos and have their music on Apple Music
