    This was one of my favorite podcasts, and I really hope you guys make more some day. Trace is a fantastic host and the topics cover a lot of content for being relatively short episodes compared to other podcasts I listen to. I really hope you guys come back soon!

    Trace I listen to your videos in the morning and they are always awesome. Just found the podcast and I am bingeing through them. Loved the cockroaches! Always thought they were neat and everyone thought I was crazy. Can’t wait for the next topic.

    This has always been my favorite podcast, so so bummed when episodes stopped in 2016. Sooo exited you’ve made a return!
  • Bibi Jean
    Great podcast
    Making podcast fun and Educational is life... ***** 🗣Seekers back!!!!!!!
  • hmss77
    Highly recommend!!
    This is a favorite of mine. I do a lot of commuting and this podcast gets listened to more often than any other. My 10 year old son is also a huge fan of this podcast. He refers to the host, Trace, as "that funny guy." Trace explains the material in a way that keeps you interested, and he also throws in just enough humor to keep it light. * Side note for parents: I am still on older episodes, but so far most of the material is pretty kid friendly; however, there is the occasional swear bomb or something of that nature. I don't know how other parents are, but with me, I just initially screen the title and description of the episodes before playing one. If there happens to be a random swear bomb or something of that nature, I just throw my son a warning look that says "don't you dare repeat that later"; he nods his compliance and we move on- nothing major though. Would definitely recommend!!

    Amazing
    I've watched the regular DNews channel on YouTube for a couple of years, and Trace has always been my favorite. As soon as I found DNews plus, I loved it. I always watched it on YouTube, but now that I have more storage on my phone I'm listening to them on here, and they're just amazing. I'm learning so much from everything and it's not boring in any way shape or form. I have highly reccomending this show to my friends, and I plan to keep on doing so. Thank you to all the writers who make the show so great!
  • ElLocoScienctist
    Awesome
    Love this Chanel
  • WavejumpGames
    Awesome podcast
    This podcast , Dnews plus (formerly testtube plus) is just awesome. It is informative, engaging, entertaining, and on point. My only complaint is that YouTube is updated much more often than this
  • FIZZYUNICORNSrLIFE
    AWESOME
    I love listening to it then adding new SCIENCE words to my vocabulary thanks Trace and DNews!!!
  • Hanks270
    Leftist Crap
    There is good content, but he always talks crap about global warming and he sounds like an idiot.
  • butterfly68
    Love it
    Awesome show keep doing what ur doing love it
  • scmgames2
    AWESOME
    So interesting and I LOVE the topics that they cover!! The only thing is I fought they stop making episodes, but it turns out for some reason this specific podcast is not being updated for me. I thought the last episode was about monsters or something and it turns out there has been 5 or 6 other episodes I didn't even know we're released
  • Jedi Master Ethan Johnson
    D News Plus: Best podcast
    I enjoy these podcasts a great deal. I listen to them at work all day. The format of the podcast lays out the information in a clear and fascinating way that is great to listen to. I hope you never stop making them. Trase has a great personality and i don't watch the podcast without him. I love his comments about producer Brian, please let us see him on the show. I live in Michigan, for me, trase's comments of his childhood are interesting. Im 17 btw. Great job keep it up.
  • ANIQABID11
    Love it love test tube
    Gives me a lot of information
  • Murkius
    Wonderful Podcast
    This is a wonderful podcast show. I love looking forward to every new series that comes out. Makes dishes a lot less boring when learning all of these new things.
  • Hdjrie
    Best podcast ever
    I love how Trace can discuss a topic for hours without sounding boring.
  • shay935
    Love it
    Smart, funny, and informative 👍🏻
  • RealNickMasters
    Test Tube College
    I want to start off by saying that I am a high school dropout with no college education at all. Over the past few years I've become a huge fan of DNews, and I'm now a huge fan of the 45 minute long Test Tube podcast. Hidden within the high level of entertainment provided, you will become unconsciously educated. Due to the vast array of knowledge acquired from this podcast, I'm regularly asked which college I attended. Which is something to brag about. This podcast it awesome!
  • Irishman 2016
    Listening and learning daily
    I love this podcast, and the way trace tells a story that is easy to understand and learn from. I plan on continuing to listen and learn all sorts of new things. Thanks 😀
  • Lulucast77

    Amazing
  • Kaleb29
    My favorite podcast!
    This podcast is simply amazing. Trace does a fantastic job with researching and explaining a variety of scientific topics. I listen to it while I go on runs. Thanks Trace!
  • Squiggies
    Outstanding podcast!
    This podcast is absolutely wonderful! The topics are presented in a way that is informative, often evocative, and always enjoyable. The host,Trace Dominguez, does a fantastic job and seems like he has a personal connection or fascination with every topic discussed.
  • Jesus5044
    Best podcast
    I don't usually listen to podcasts but out of the podcasts I've listen to, this is my favorite. I listen to test tube plus in YouTube as well as Dnews but I'm forced to listen to test tube plus from the podcast app because I like listen to interesting science/technology podcasts when I go to bed and i cant lock my phone and keep the video running from the YouTube app. Keep up the good work traice 👍🏻 ( sorry can't spell your name )
  • Part565
    Unbiased and informative
    Really like how Trace talks about various topics not just from the world of science but also from topics that matter and are very informative and interesting.
  • Money_Murf
    Greatest Podcast Ever!!
    Like I said before this is the greatest podcast ever!
  • megan114
    informative and entertaining
    i love these - so many cool facts about interesting topics!
  • Truman Coyote
    Surprisingly Fluid Podcast
    You might think that a solo podcast is pretty boring, but Trace is surprisingly entertaining and interesting even though it's just him. Really well-put-together podcast, worth the time and download. You can seriously learn a lot while listening.
  • Mavrickguitarsx
    Just as good as YouTube.
    Awesome I've been following the show on YouTube with it just streaming on my phone in my pocket. I didn't know, until now, that it was available as a podcast. Love this show!
  • NegativeFivee

    MADE FOR NERDS!
    Amazing show. Great in depth discussions. Makes my commute back home a pleasure
  • forlornd
    Great show to flex your brain spot.
    Trace is my favorite D-News host and his solo performance is just as good if not better.
  • Dude-e
    Awesome Stuff!
    Information galore! Trace can explain huge and complex topics in simple understandable terms. The best part is they dig deep into the topic and try to cover as much as possible
  • Ddude9
    Here from Soucrefed
    This podcast is so interesting and I love all of its topics!
  • Amp_pao
    Love it and useful
    I love trace, especially since he's A Michigander😉 not only that, this is good for info in a forum/debate or essays
  • kenstoner
    Fantastic
    Very very well done show. Great topics and easy to listen to and understand. Would recommend to anyone.
  • Your babies daddy
    Test tube baby
    Love the show
  • JackieMorgan
    Very well done
    Typically solo podcasts fall flat because they have nobody to talk to, but this works very well. Every episode is very in-depth and straight-forward.
  • shamamamama
    Geeky fun
    Trace has a way of taking complex scientific problems and breaking them down into digestible bites, while never being patronizing or pedantic. You never get that all-too-common podcast feeling that they’re trying to kill time. Even when the topic is something I think I know everything about, I’m pleasantly surprised to learn something new or hear about it from a fresh angle.
  • Kyle Kindle
    Better than Stuff you should know!!
    Love it. Stuff you should know without the idiot rambling.
