    Noooo! He's such a great "character" on the show. Like a friendly devil's advocate, at least in the presence of Jad.

    For anyone interested to know more about "Bobby" (or at least his work) I recommend this episode from 2014: Happy Birthday Bobby K

    I’ve loved his curiosity and the back and forth between them on the show. I have to admit that the... less scientific?... bend they’ve had over the past few years has been really disappointing to me as an early Radiolab listener. I’m curious if that will change at all with his departure - he seemed somewhat the less interested one in that angle.

    I loved it when they were focusing on “making science feel like you’re a third grader again”, which I heard them say about their earlier episodes. I’d love to see more of that.
