I hate these guy but have to listen to them
These guys are crude and obnoxious yet I can’t stop listening to them. I just wish they would talk more about how great pugs are and less about the Etruscans. Pugs pugs pugs pugs pugs pugs pugs pugs pugs pugs pugs pugs

Always Teaching Me Something New
This podcast somehow makes me feel smarter and dumber at the same time. I also have so much random information in my head now, like the story of Tarrare, which I tell to pretty much anyone who will listen. Thanks for the conversation starters!

SCREAM LAUGH FUNNY!!!
I always LOVE it when the Cognitive Dissonance guys teeam up with the Puzzle in a Storm crew in their podcasts. Doing a podcast with all of them on the regular is a spectacular move. This makes for 5 podcasts between them, and it still leaves me craving more from them. The combination of irreverent humor with super genius intelligence can't be beat.

Already loved these guys on their separate podcasts, so it’s great to listen to them all together. Always hilarious.

Always a blast to listen to! Highly recommend if you want to learn stuff while 5 guys try to be funny.

Yessssss!
Nothing like a group of sweet sweet smart@sses! Y’all are great, thanks for the laughs and “informative” wiki to get me through my work mornings!

It’s what would happen if a wikipedia article walked into a bar…
Each week, our intrepid hosts read a Wikipedia article and pretend they're experts. The results are both informative and laugh out loud funny. It’s like hanging out with friends -and you get all the inside jokes.

Always a joy
Been following all these guys for a while now on other podcasts. When I see this download, I know my hour long commute is going to be good. It’s like being at a dinner listening to a bunch of funny friends opining on anything that falls into the category of “noun”.

Gets me through the week
I started off listening to their separate podcasts and when they came together for Citation Needed it was a dream come true. It’s absolutely hysterical and I listen to each episode multiple times and still laugh while learning a bit about the most random topics. The editing is amazing, you wouldn’t believe that these guys are in four different states. With Noah’s rage, Tom and Cecil’s sarcastic banter, Heath’s squeaky laugh, and Eli’s Eli-ness you get a podcast that gets funnier with every episode.

Truly helps with my depression
So: I am basically the opposite of what a citation needed listener is expected to be - I’m a catholic, mixed race, queer female college student. I truly find these guys absolutely hysterical, and even though they joke a lot about the things I find sacred, that doesn’t mean that those jokes aren’t automatically bad. In fact most of the time: they’re brilliant. I know that they’re going to get heat for their 9/11 truthers episode, and as a New Yorker, I just want to say that it actually helped to make me smile on such a sad day (which is really quite hard to do). Please give them a chance - I subscribe to Citation Needed, the Skepticrat, and God Awful Movies, and each download sparks joy. Keep up the great work, guys!

Eli Bosnick, The Second Coming
Eli Bosnick is the Alpha, the Omega. The beginning, and the end. The light in the darkness. He is the way there, and the way home.
Heath, Noah, Cecil, and Tom are ok too.

Better than other things.
This show is the best way you can spend 30 min to an hour. Except sex. Or eating really good pizza. Or foreplay. Or a lot of things. There are really a lot of things that are better ways to spend your time, but this show is better than other things that aren’t as fun. It’s a lot of things.

Love it or hate it
I think you either love listening to these smart buffoons chat about interesting topics, or else you hate ‘em. I happen to fall into the former and enjoy the mix of low brow humor and high pitched laughter peppered with clever and witty quips from some intelligent dudes 🤷🏻♀️

I listen to this show all the time at work, I even go so far as to listen to episodes I’ve already heard again, best podcast ever.

Every week...
You know how some podcasts get kinda lame after a while? Like, they’re fun, but you just get tired of hearing them every week and they just sit unlistened-to in your new episodes list, piled up with your old episodes?
This isn’t that kind of podcast. It’s never unfunny, and the episodes aren’t that long, so there’s never an excuse to not listen to it as soon as it pops into your feed every week.
Plus, y’know, you learn really obscure stuff too.

👌🏻👌🏻
Wednesdays are made better by this podcast. Perfect for hump day and perfect for people would’ve liked their history teachers to be more sarcastic in high school/college.

Hilarious and informative
One of my favorite podcasts. Always happy when it's in my rotation for the day. Interesting topics and witty banter from the Scathing Atheist and Cognitive Dissonance crews.

I love this show
This show is a perfect mix of comedy and informative content. If you want to learn something while laughing maniacally the whole time. This show is a great way to pass the time.

Non stop comedy
For those that don’t get it, you need to listen long enough to understand each of their personalities. Yes, some of it is sophomoric. But they know how to make each other laugh. Unlike local radio. These are best friends ( yes, Noah... best friends!) it’s not 100% all the time. It 100% most of the time! They tackle difficult material and have a laugh over it. This podcast needs to become mainstream!!!

One of my all-time favorites.
An ingeniously crafted mosaic of madness and hilarity.
Highly recommend.

Great podcast.
Week to week this group brings out a hilarious podcast that never ceases to keep me interested and entertained. I’m sitting here trying to come up with more to write but it’s not worth it. Go listen, if your into interesting “facts” told in disgustingly funny ways then this is your show.
Just for informational reasons, not a dig or anything I’m upset about, but this podcast is definitely NSFW. I love that they are, but you’ve been told now.
