From Core to Above

Fascinating and beautifully presented. Made listening enjoyable and captivating. This made me give other Grown-Up Guides on other subjects a listen!

Fascinating Overview. Thoroughly enjoyed

Prof Jackson gives a good overview with supplements from various other experts. He does a good job of making it understandable for a non-scientist but gives enough information to make it useful. He ties it together well. Narration is really well done. I liked the Guides to Dinosaurs and Oceans as well. Guide to Earth was my favorite. I will definitely seek out the books he references in interviews to explore topics further. Best Audible podcast so far.

fun, informative

I enjoyed how casually things were explained. I learned a lot and retained it too which isn't always normal for me.

Good summary, a few steps above basic

Fun series to listen to, should trigger some unknown memories of science class, and maybe add a little bit of detail onto some good topics everyone should know.

Really good.

This series is excellent. half hour episodes of information in a way it is easy to comprehend so you don't get overwhelmed but still still invokes awe, inspiration and amazement. After dinosaurs and the earth, I am keen to find the episodes on the ocean he mentioned. 👍

Quick Refresher

I enjoyed primarily as a refresher of previously learned material. So it’s nice to learn that some new things have been discovered and named. The interviews of experts was useful. It was a dialogue between many. Great work Audible!

Entertaining yet educational

Could quibble with some provided "facts" (e.g. plastic "never" degrading - a rather loose and inaccurate use of the word across the timespans of an ice core or other typical geologic core samples) but overall an easy listen providing a useful, high level overview of the history of our earth through lenses of a range of disciplines (geology, anthropology and climate science, primarily).

Interesting and informative

3 stars - I liked it

This is a six episode podcast about Earth. It starts at the center of the Earth and covers everything to space. This was a very interesting series and covered everything from plate tectonics to global warming. It does get a bit technical at times but I think they did a good job at explaining everything.

Also I liked that interviews with various professionals were included and it wasn’t just the author providing all the information. The audio quality for those does fluctuate though.
