    Hilarious, Informative, Charming
    Been listening since Season 2, now proudly on Season 5. A duo of passionate hosts with great comedic chemistry, well-researched scripts, and (formerly) hilarious skits. While the dropping of cutaways is a little disappointing, it’s worth them giving more attention to the focus of the show. Keep it going as long as you can, love y’all!!

    Funny!
    I love this podcast! Jack and Melissa are hilarious so I can laugh while learning!
  • rskillion
    90% slow unfunny banter, 10% facts.
    I love the topic of this podcast, but my goodness are there really people who can listen to this painfully slow and unfunny banter for an hour patiently waiting for the occasional fact to appear here and there? Cause I can’t.

    Fun, funny, and educational!
    I love Melissa and Jack’s banter, silly side bits, and all the research that goes into making this podcast! Definitely one of my favorite podcasts.
  • MrRedner
    Really entertaining and enjoyable?!
    This show is great for anyone who loves comedy and extinction of animals. Melissa and jack are great hosts and comedians I think. I love when a new episode comes out and I get to laugh and learn along. 11 out of 10 would recommend except for the Tecopa pupfish, that one I would like and keep to my self as it is great. Sincerely, Trey

    Heavy subject made palatable
    Melissa and Jack are great. You can tell they really care about their subject matter and Melissa does great research. Like my other favorite podcast, #MyFavoriteMurder, they tell the story of tragic events with humor. If you have no sense of humor, or you cannot appreciate dark humor, if you don’t get sarcasm, this is not the podcast for you. But for the rest of us it’s freaking awesome.

    Extiction as .... humor?
    If you enjoy unfunny people having a good larf about the death of entire species, this podcast is for you. They do a decent job of research, but the desperate need to constantly make dumb jokes ruins what could otherwise be a good podcast. Horrible people.
