    Not great

    One of my favorite podcasts
    I’m so sad they stopped making this because it has been one of my favorite podcasts. I’m going to listen to it again because it’s phenomenal.
  • Nini.d.blue
    Best mediocre podcast out there!
    This podcast is one of my most listened to solely for the fact that it is so boring and helps me fall asleep. I went into it trying to learn new things but found your voices too soothing to listen to during the day. Either way, thanks!

    Great podcast
    This show is amazing. I love the amount of work that you guys put into all the material you speak on. The friendly banter between American English and British English is entertaining as well (especially for a person who moved to the US after using the metric system!) I love to listen to this podcast either when I mow or drive. It makes the time go by fast.

    Hilariously Unpredictable and Entertaining
    The brainfood show is a top quality podcast. It’s the type of podcast you could randomly click play on any episode and it would be thoroughly entertaining. Both gentlemens’ voices are pleasant to listen to, and their witty banter and hilarious asides keep their shows unpredictable. The cherry on top is the fact that you actually learn a lot about interesting topics from the episodes. Great show gentlemen, keep up the phenomenal work.

    Give me more episodes fact boy
    Congratulations on the second child Simon, when you get Danny back in the basement give me more brain food.
  • ruskiiran
    Big thumbs up

  • Smokenhotlamabather
    Make more fact boy
    COME ON FACT BOY! Your show is awesome. The format is good and it’s fun to listen to you both waffle on.
  • SamC_311
    Great Podcast

  • ?)(;:456)(;5)),,
    Love it.
    Discovered this from the YouTube channel. Been binge listening for about a week now. Keep it coming gents. This is my favorite thing you two put out.
  • iJackT
    Fun
    Well researched info

    I love this show
    I found this show in January and love it. I only have two more episodes left to listen to. It hasn’t been updated since last year so I’m afraid it is over.
  • Ethomasphoto
    Star Trek
    I really hope they keep doing the Star Trek facts.
  • wingdo
    Excellent podcast.
    I hope Simon and Daven bring the podcast back. They finally hit a perfect stride and then they disappear. Fascinating stories, great banter, and a lot of getting totally off track.
  • KyTnGuy
    Mysterious Hiatus
    So on the last episode Daven said he’d bought an airplane. That was about five months ago, and there have been no updates since. I’m starting to get concerned. I hope everything is okay because this is one of my top favorite podcasts and the hosts seem like great guys. I’m sure it’s nothing, but I can’t help but think about the whole Amelia Earhart thing.
  • bjamessch
    My favorite podcast
    Easily my favorite podcast full of interesting info and effortless banter between Simon and Devin. Came to it after discovering Today I found out and top tenz. Love all of your works, even if you disappear from the podcasts for long periods, hope you’re all alright
  • Neal Downe
    Always Funtertaining
    (Every positive comment already made). Still waiting for The Fascinating Origin of French Fries. Come on, guys - you only have about 99% of human history left to cover (along with the rest of the known universe). “Please, Sir, may I have some more?”
  • igoekler
    Excellent content
    I’ve listened to hours and hours of this podcast and the casual criminalist while recovering from surgery. The long deep dives are appreciated.
  • coatesmatt
    Great conversations on interesting topics
    Each episode has great topics and the banter between the hosts is perfect.

    More Cowbell
    Too infrequent
  • joelclendineng
    Great show!
    I don’t write many reviews but this is awesome. Always informative and entertaining. Edit: would be 6 stars except they don’t release episodes much anymore
  • ThisisaPaigeturner
    Love the Information
    I’ve been binge listening to these as I drive or do other tasks. It’s great listening to something educational and interesting. I’ve listened and/or watched several of Simon’s channels. Thank you for your time in making my day a bit brighter. 😁
  • salinia miso
    Another way to consume Simon Whistler’s wonderful personality
    I love this podcast and look forward to more episodes. Very informative and fun. Of course I subscribe to anything Simon does because it has always turned out well for me. Business Blaze is my favorite but this is a close second! Simon’s personality shines through.
  • bahoelscher
    A delightful blend of interesting topics and quirky humor
    I’ve followed some of the YouTube channels for a bit now, but I’m reeeeelly late to the podcast party. I’m so glad I looked into podcasts, and this is exactly what I needed. I listen to the podcast when I’m getting ready for work and on my morning commute. Educational and entertaining. Smashed that like button! Much love from Texas!
  • Rhdthhiohfrhjjgfr
    Fun to listen
    I’ve been listening for about a year to these podcasts and they keep getting better
  • idahoborn11

    The voice
    Your British voice is so good and it makes listening to this amazing.
  • MikeTheBush
    Great Podcast
    I came here because I heard him mention it on Business Blaze. He’s amazing in everything he does. And it’s true. The past was the worst!
  • zyler84
    “Allegedly “ the best podcast ever
    Subscribed to all the Boy with the Blazes YouTube channels and this lead me here to the first podcast I’ve ever listened to . I’ve stared oldest to newest on the Brainfood show , just about to start Medieval Times pt1 . You guys are absolute Legends and it’s mind blowing the attention to detail and amount of work y’all put in to these shows. So crank up ETA , unlock the basement door , pass out the Doner kebabs , top off the Enron mugs and cheers to the best dang podcast on the interwed in 2021 . P.s. There shall be No smashing of the dislike button on this day Good Sir no smashing at all
  • RayT12345
    Great listen in the car
    If your on a road trip and are looking for something to listen to, especially if your by yourself, the conversation pulls you in quickly and it feels like they are in the back seat.
  • Poinsettias23
    Great Podcast!
    I found this podcast while looking for something to keep my mind occupied while doing house chores. At first I went through and picked the few that I thought I would find interesting and then I realized - they’re all interesting! So then I worked my way backwards from newest from oldest. I really enjoy the banter between Simon and Daven and all the interesting stories about everything under the sun. As one of your fewer female listeners, I would recommend this show to anyone, it is fun and informative and an all around great way to keep your mind busy while doing menial tasks or commuting to and from work!
  • Justin Guymon
    A real giggle
    Thanks for the facts, fact boy
  • amarecaprix
    Thank you
    Great to listen alone to while and absorb the facts. Thanks guys good show
  • Max D. Zoro
    Very enjoyable
    Today I found out + business blaze
  • naseerahvja
    Fun and informative
    Been watching on YouTube for ages, finally started listening here, love it
  • StarWarsFever
    The Best Podcast There Is
    Long format, lots of dicussion and references, lots of awesome information, and I could listen to Simon talk all day (Daven as well, but Simon’s accent is super chill and soothing). They have great chemistry and really play off of each other’s strengths and weaknesses. For exampe, Simon doesn’t Iike Star Wars and doesn’t really watch many popular movies. Daven does. However Daven doesn’t like most vegitables, but Simon does, etc.. I discovered this podcast after being an avid TIFO annd Business Blaze fan (the latter of which is he best channel on YouTube). I’ve been listening to everything in reverse order and have almost gone through all their post content. My only complaint is the lack of new podcasts. Earlier in the streams, it seems they would release one or so every week. The latests podcasts come about once a month (if we’re lucky). I’d love more, but I understand that Simon and Daven are some of the busiest people on the internet. I know I can always check out the YT channnels for content, but it’s easier to listen to these podcasts while I’m at work...even if I’m working from my sofa. Keep up the awesome and keep ‘em coming! And Simon, please watch The Princess Bride.

    Learn things!
    I love a good banter podcast. I came here from business blaze! Can I still win the $1000? Pick me!
  • certifed legend
    Simon is a legend
    Everything simon Whistler does is extraordinarily entertaining. Though honestly I’m writing this review for a shot at wining the $1000 amazon Gift card so I can buy more zebra sex mask for my cult
  • Dogmacfor34
    Love this Cast.
    I watch all of Simons ytube video’s and love them. Brainfood is great because, like in the Blaze, you get to see (or hear in this case) Simon display some actual personality. Keep up the great work on all you do. Smash that dislike button. Just have to now, finally some new stuff.
  • MathProfDK
    Love it (mostly)
    I’ve been enjoying this podcast on my commute for the last couple of years. I love the conversational tone and Simon’s ad libs. They have a great rapport and the research is top notch. My only complaint is that both Simon and Daven struggle with how to discuss difficult topics, particularly violence towards women. They tend to awkwardly laugh at how awful something is, which is a bit off-putting.
  • Mcpaisty
    Great show
    Funny, interesting, one of the best podcasts out there.
  • Tristen, the creator
    Love these guys
    I’m a huge fan of these guys’ other shows on other forms of media, but this format is what helps me get through long drives. Always excellent and informative work. Simon’s got a great voice to listen to.
  • Chompatamos
    Brain food is delicious !
    Entertaining, fun, full of interesting facts, and the hosts have good chemistry together.
  • Zaphod Beeblbrox
    Great show!
    Plenty of interesting facts and great dialogue.
  • Tax Goddess 73
    Coolest podcast
    Love the witty banter between Davin & Simon. Cannot wait until the next episode. I have been a listener since the beginning.
  • Luc?
    Fun Stuff
    This podcast is informative and entertaining. I liked the Today I Found Out YouTube videos so it was natural that I’d like this. It’s not dry and these two have some funny banter back and forth. I took it down to 4 stars because the upload schedule is all over the place and, I guess because I’m feeling petty, Daven often mispronounces extremely common American words and names. I know it’s tricky for some people, but I’m smh sometimes. Nevertheless, you two are awesome, keep it up.
  • Wolfsbane1980
    Love it
    Love the conversational format.
  • Ghostcrtv
    Always Entertaining
