Been listening to TWIS since the TWIT days. So many years of awesome science. Love these nerds.❤️
Can Justin get some speech lessons scheduled? Getting hard to listen to his 'drunken scientist' schtick. Love his mind but . . .
learn something new
the male presenter is too annoying to listen to. he sure does love to hear his own voice. actually, they're both idiots.
