Popular Reviews of Curiosity Daily

The most intelligent information source I've ever heard, and it's just a few minutes!Love it!

This used to be a great podcast. Then Discovery took over and ruined it. First came a bunch of ads, then new episodes only three days a week, then the fire creator/host Cody Gaugh and longtime host Ashley Hamer. After that, the feed is nothing but reruns and then, surprise, they push out a trailer with two new hosts, Nate and Calli, who attempt to banter just like Cody and Ashley. Seriously? Thanks, Discovery for taking a great podcast and destroying it. I, for one, will not be listening. I hope everyone else boycotts as well. Awful!

This show nails the short-show format. Interesting, quick-paced, and even funny. Really well done show.

Great podcast. Very cool and unique guests, mostly from out of Chicago, unlike all the other generic New York podcasts. Love the laid back style, and Ashley's "fun facts" during the episodes make them super fun to listen to. Highly recommended!

This show was great when it was Ashley and Cody. Then one day they were gone with promises of new episodes from Disocovery. Months later we got our taste of the new hosts and I’m not impressed. The new hosts are trying to hard to be Ashley and Cody in the preview episode. Their banter, wordplay, and jokes feel forced. Cody and Ashley had a natural cohost chemistry going back and forth and it can’t be replicated by two new hosts trying to follow their forum ups. This felt like someone made a script based off what they thought Ashley and Cody would say and gave it to two people with instructions to try and be a poor man’s copy of them. If Discovery really wants to keep this podcast they need to let these hosts do their own thing. Having them copy and sound like Cody and Ashley is poor formula for retaining listeners who spent hours listening to Cody and Ashley. I’m pretty sure the writing is on the wall this this once great podcast is now a shadow of itself. Such a bummer to see from a once quality show.

Must have for infotainment lovers

Curiosity Daily is so well put together that every episode is a joy to listen to. That consistency is something I value a lot. It's a podcast I can just play and know it's going to be good.

Very good podcast. Top of my list.

Helpful life hacks and interesting tidbits consolidated into a concise 10-20 minute show.

My favorite morning update! Love the information and energy this team brings and look forward to it everyday.

I used to listen to this everyday. I loved Ashley Hamer and Cody Goff. They delivered the information naturally, with good banter and I honestly believed they knew random factoids they presented.I was getting worried when it had been repeats for weeks and apparently for good reason. These new hosts are God awful. They try and banter the same way, but it's so obviously scripted and the guy is terrible. The jokes he makes have the wrong inflections and emphasis and it's so cringey. I made it a minute into the drug one and he just aggressively yet somehow deadpan said "better than by the river in a van" and I was so thrown off. Like was that a joke? She's laughing like it is. The factoids are not believable from them. They are obviously just "actors" reading a script while Cody and Ashley actually seemed excited about the content. I'm so sad that my morning routine will have to change cause this is now unlistenable.

I've been listening to this podcast daily for a few years now. It's a good short podcast to listen to while I start my day to get me thinking about new things and give me ideas for what to look into later when I have a moment to dive a bit deeper into subjects I'm more interested in. It strikes a good balance between being simple to understand for a mass market and getting too deep in the weeds with technical terms. The hosts have a great chemistry together as well!

My favorite. I never miss an episode, it's part of my morning routine. ??

Look forward to M-F podcasts, learn something new. I often ask Alexa to "go back" to rehear a point. Can we access these podcasts more than once a day on Alexa?

This is my favorite podcast of all the many that I listen to. I always learn fascinating and useful things and have a really fun time doing it. If I'm feeling down, listening to the hosts always lifts my spirits. Curiosity Daily's quality is consistently excellent.

From our sense of smell to earth's drifting magnetic poles, this podcast has lots of interesting information.

Amazing podcast presented by interesting and lovable presenters. After finding this podcast I am working my way through all the episodes. Really quality content.

Absolutely the best podcast! I love learning a little more about this crazy world each day.

Just superb podcast of 10 to 15 minutes, which can suit exactly your hectic schedule.No episode will be boring, and you can learn cool things.I recommend this to every one who are very 'curious' to end the day with learning of things

I found this podcast by chance and I’m extremely glad I did. My AICE English language class is doing a podcast project where we were asked to watch a podcast and review it. Me, being the lazy high school kid at the end of the year, googled “short podcasts”. However, I stumbled upon a gold mine. Curiosity daily is a fantastic podcast. Its pretty short and sweet at anywhere from 11-15 minutes long, but it packs lots and lots of really interesting and cool information into such a short time frame. I started with the most recent one about octopuses. I thought this was super interesting and really cool to see how other animals, especially ocean animals, sleep. They also talked about how kids and even some adults think that eyesight works. This was super interesting; however, I feel like it was kind of jumpy. By jumpy I mean just when I thought I was getting engaged and super interested, BAM. A new topic was on discussion without much introduction at all. I believe this was probably because of the short time frame, but I felt like each discussion was kind of stopped abruptly. With that being said, I liked the fast paced and short structure of the podcast. I liked how I could get a good bit of information about topics most people are curious about, including myself. This made me feel like I had a purpose behind listening, and I wasn’t wasting my time. I wish I could ask the hosts about the structure. I feel like a little more elaboration on some topics could be cool and maybe more similar ideas in each episode. It was kind of weird to me how the topics would go from something like AI and board games to learning making people less passionate. Either way I really enjoyed the podcast and I feel as if it was a good informative podcast that allowed me to increase my knowledge. I feel like a cool thing the podcast could talk about would be how certain things are made or done. Such as maybe rubber because most people don’t know and its quite cool. Either way I think how things are made could be cool to talk about. Anyways, great podcast I really enjoyed it and really recommend it.
