    Top of my playlist
    I always listen to this show first. Short and fun, well worth going through the whole series.

    Sweet and short! Keep it up
  • Blizzard1s2d
    Extremely short and fun!
    Brief little discussions about definitions, wacky in a fun way.

    Of all the podcasts I listen to, this one has the silliest premise.
  • joecab
    simple but effective
    It's goofy. But funny. And brief. But interesting.
  • dwearsch
    A really fun, nerdy break from longer shows
    John's thorough approach to analyzing each potential robot is a delight, especially when Jason messes with him.

    Siracusa; check; Snell; check; Robot; check -- everything I need for a great podcast
    With so many 1, 2 or 3 hour podcasts, a 2 to 5 min podcast is so refreshing. Now we only need to figure out if John is a Robot or Not.

    Short, sweet, weird
    I smile as soon as I hear the opening music.

    Review from a robot
    As a robot, I do not understand the concept of a gray area. Either the Sasquatch is a robot or it is not. These gentlemen do an extraordinary job distinguishing between robots and robot imposters. It almost makes me suspicious that one of them may work for a government agency hell bent on sniffing out the robots among you. The only other explanation is that one, if not both, of these gentlemen are robots themselves!

    Best
    I listen to a lot of podcasts. Every day. All of the time. I have never rated a podcast before. This is the best one. Don't ever stop.

    5 episodes in, it’s my favorite podcast
    I listen to quite a few podcasts, but Robot or Not has quickly become my new favorite. All of the episodes so far have been composed of two of the best geeky podcasters credits can buy, Jason Snell and John Siracusa. Each episode is super short, so it’s easy to fit in during a quick run to the store or in between other shows. I look forward to learning more over time what are the true rules of robotdom.
