Dope Labs

288

Dope Labs is a podcast hosted by best friends (and two of the dopest scientists you will ever meet), Titi and Zakiya. In each episode, they serve up scientific principles with a healthy dose of tea. From cuffing season to Cardi B, they’ll take what’s trending and put it under the microscope with the help of some very smart (and cool) scientific friends. At Dope Labs, we believe “science is for errybody” and our mission is to bring out the inner scientist in YOU.

    Spotify move is a bad idea
    Great show but have drop when moves exclusively to Spotify. Spotify is for music not podcasts.

    So Good!
    You really can’t underestimate the value of good editing, structure, and humor. This podcast is just so well done that it doesn’t matter what they’re talking about, it’s good! It just makes it that much better that they make EVERYTHING interesting. And the cheat sheets? The transcription? The additional content?! Fantastic all around!

    Funny, educational, amazing women of color!
    Dope labs is my new favorite podcast. Two brilliant, educated, funny, relatable women talking about science. Learning about science doesn’t have to be boring! Like bill nye for grown people.

    So far so good
    Truth pie is an interesting episode, talks about the unintended effects of settlers in early America. Thanks SciSchow Tangents for the suggestion. How many earthworms or bugs in general are you traveling with?

    Thank you from a fellow PhD material science researcher!
    I just found your podcast and am hooked! I listen to it daily while I’m in the lab working on my PhD research. It’s so nice to hear from other black STEM women who have different interests but use their scientific minds to dissect today’s biggest issues. Thank you for representing, Thank you for informing and thank you for just being two awesome black women who support each other and love science!

  • Eggggggggggggggfggg
    Amazing!
    A friend recommended this podcast and now I’m hooked! T & Z are so informative in such a fun way. I love to hear their friendship for one another through each episode. It’s the perfect length to learn a little something without getting bogged down or requiring more time than this busy mama has! Highly recommend!
  • AESG18
    Super enjoyable!
    I’m a huge true crime & comedy podcast listener so sometimes I just need a quick break from all the gruesome details. This podcast is AMAZING ♥️ T & Z are funny and the conversations are super fresh & informative! Keep it up!!!
  • Theresa B Sayers
    Thoroughly enjoyable and informative
    I love these ladies. This isn’t fluff; it’s good information presented in a fun and light way.
  • N-eskola
    Five Stars is not enough...
    Dope Labs is one of the most informative and hilarious podcasts I've ever listened to. T & Z are truly incredible hosts. Fully intend to tell anyone who will listen about this podcast. You both are brilliant and we are all blessed!!!!
  • Guitardude223
    Good entertainers but more science
    Man I’m into these two and their vibe. Great chemistry, great banter, and great laughs! But some of the science they talk about is hardly science. I was pretty on board until the “spooky” episode about “paranormal detection technology.” I like how they inserted a couple pieces of real education but come on, why are you legitimizing this pseudoscience man? Like really you’re leading some people astray here.

    Dopest of the dope
    I just discovered Zakiya & Titi. Love their vibe. Love their minds. Just subscribed & I am hooked!!
  • maggyHan4
    Love them!!
    I don’t relate to every single topic but honestly their chemistry and humor is so infectious you can’t help but tune in. They remind me of me and bestie. I love them!!!
  • Andreamarie0111
    Sooo dope !!!
    I love to the two of you so much good information!!!
  • LittleMissSunshine410
    Love DopeLabs!
    Zakiya and Titi are wonderful! I love this podcast!! They are hilarious and are a great pair! The topics they delve into are interesting, and I’m always excited for each new podcast that comes out!
  • Airbss9
    This is how it should alway be!
    I am 67 years old. These two extraordinary women did exactly what I wanted to do my whole life...bring science to EVERYONE! Thank you ladies. Grab on with both hands and don’t let go and don’t stop. You ARE making a difference.

    Thank you, Spotify!
    I mainly listen to podcasts on Spotify because that’s where I listen to most of my music. Saw this advertised on my home page and gave it a listen, and boy am I glad I did! I mostly listen to true crime podcasts but this was a lovely breath of fresh air. Titi and Zakiya are both great hosts and I love their chemistry with each other. I like the idea of tying in this science related stuff into pop culture, it’s great for the not-so-well-informed likes myself! I’m only four episodes in but have enjoyed everything so far! I also love the fact that the hosts are intelligent black women — it’s a game changer, and I’m glad Spotify recognized their potential!
  • Grouponnn

  • cynthia from nyc
    Can't get enough of Titi and Zakiya!
    These two dope WOC scientists have a real gift for dropping knowledge in accessible and hilarious ways! I've learned so much and literally laughed out loud in public places while listening to Dope Labs Podcast. Keep 'em coming, ladies!! Y'all are on fire!
  • Rocky Holiday

    Dope Labs = Dopest Podcast
    Greatest podcast on the planet and, quite frankly, the only podcast I listen to. There is clearly hours of hard work, research and dedication put in to each episode. There are always tons of lols to be had. Great job y’all! And remember “If you mess with labbo, you get the stabbo!” — OP 2019 —GBC
  • Tamikisses
    Sooo Good!
    Love the combo of pop culture and scientific study/theory. Perfect for the “sophistarachets.”
  • KristinaLR
    Entertaining, informative & relatable
    Such an amazing podcast show that’s SO entertaining and actually informs in a simple to understand way. I laugh while learning and that’s key! Love this show. Keep it up.
  • JCrush3
    You’re gonna have fun in this lab
    This is the science podcast I’ve been waiting for! Titi and Zakiya are super fun and engaging and make you feel like you’ve been friends with them forever. Plus, they do a great job dissecting the trash on the internet with their scientific training. Finally, some science I can talk to the non-scientists in my life about.
  • radelemj
    So fun and interesting
    Titi and Z are the best friends I’ve always wanted! These two are hilarious and so so smart. They translate science so your girl can understand easily. I feel smarter and happier after listening!!
  • Gbeti
    So GOOD!
    I really loved this pilot episode. What a wonderful intro to what is sure to be a lighthearted, funny, educational and entertaining series. I could definitely sense that they are best friends...the conversations and jokes just flowed naturally effortlessly. Can’t wait to step into the lab every other Thursday with Titi and Zakiya!
