"I found the first episode about “correct” foreign name pronunciation in native English-speaking countries to be a particularly cathartic listen...Akbar’s personal experiences as a second-generation immigrant who grew up in Michigan, gives some of the more academic concepts in the show a welcome personal touch, and overall, he makes for a warm, amiable host."

"Ahmed Ali Akbar is the lively host of this fun and inquisitive series...Akbar takes a nerdy dive..."
