man, i just fell asleep for 2 hours whilst trying to listen to this guy haha!
-
Idk..sometimes it seems to have more random crap and filler than the text book
-

Haha seriouss?? He's good ;).
lol yeah. he is good though, but i was listening to the chemistry one, it's like i knew every third word he was going to say haha. when does he get to the more important stuff?
-
this guy may bore me to death at times, and occasionally put me to sleep, but his analogy on the effect of enzyme and substrate concentration on the rate of metabolic reactions was fucking brilliant!!!
-
This guy really waffles on...I listened to the glucose one again...us making alcohol as a product of cellular respiration.... need to be 18+ to join a gym and need to take a designated driver... getting smashed off marathons...lol

He talks a bit of shit yeah :P.

-
lol this guy is Awesome his Enzyme rant was bleeding gold! plus i love how he repeats things all the time in a different way cos i sometimes zone out. the Enzyme one was the only one i listened to to date so i dont know bout the others
-
Took me forever to get my head around immunity by myself
listened to his latest one a couple times and i feel like an expert now ;D
i llove douchy ;D

Have a listen to all of them instead of reading the textbook in that bit :P.. OR do both, listening is an easier way to learn, and better than reading to retain information.
I sure as heck will! Mr. Douchy, marry me.
-
Douchy=Legend :)
-
despite some of the random stuff Douchy says, he's awesome and as my teacher is such a dud, it is good I found out about him.
Thanks Douchy
-
How do you get previous podcasts because only his most recent 2 are up? Is he selling a CD with 2010 podcasts too?
-
I might upload them if people promise not to tell anyone.
After the exams. It's a pain in the ass how he takes them down. Definitely money driven.
-
Thanks, that would be much appreciated :) Best of luck for your remaining exams!
-
They are not available anymore and apparently he is now selling them on CD.
If anyone has them still in their music library and can post them that would be great!
Wow, so much for benevolent.
-
Hahah it's not money driven, he pulls em down coz it costs him money to host!
Doesn't mean he can't put them on MegaUpload for free. It is hard to see another motive for this other than money.
-

It's okay, in my opinion, the podcasts are relatively similar every year (maybe different questions though?) so you're not missing out on so much - he puts out new podcasts onto podomatic each year anyway so you can just download and listen to the most recent ones.
Yeah. Whilst I know I shouldn't be winging because they are free, waiting for them to come out is/was a pain.
-
Andrew Douch, endorsed.
Was the main reason for my 50 in bio.
-
Yeah Andrew Douch saved my life for the biology mid years.. Listening to his podcast during the last two weeks really helped. Its too bad I gave up on the subject for the end of year :(
-
Are these podcasts any good even if you're not particularly an auditory learner?
-
He's good, I only found out about these podcasts 2 day before the end of year exams!
I was expecting a 33 but in fact got 36 thanks to this guy's podcasts (a few things mentioned were on the exam!), listen to them :)
-
I have the Pearson Education Podcrammers already... are these podcasts better??
-
How many podcasts are there ? I could only find 3 on iTunes , can someone link me to he full set?
Best to listen to them as revision, use the textbook/biozone atm
-
How do you get the MHS thing in your Sig Rohitpi?
I made my previous one (which was noob), so request one on here (put in a pic of mine and say that you want to change the '2011' to '2012'). They'll do it in a day or so!
-
hahaha this all made me laugh :P
how can i listen to his podcasts?
-

Just go on itunes and search his podcast and it should come up, his most recent one came out today
-
Yeah... I don't really get his podcasts
However some were awesome~
Depends on what kind of learner you are
-
I actually don't find douchy's podcasts to be very helpful. He rarely ever teaches me anything and his voice is so annoying. He talks about too much crap at the beginnings and ends.
-
I guess it depends on how you learn. I for one, spend a lot of time on the bus, washing dishes, going for jogs .. I find it very helpful that I can 'study' biology whilst doing these things. Yes he does seem to babble on sometimes but I find him very easy to listen to .. a step away from my boring biology teacher at school.
-
He's really good for introducing concepts, if you're already very confident in the area he's talking about then it'll probably be too slow for you. Oh, and his voice is the best.
-
im the oppositite i have no time for douchy.. when im on the train im too busy talking to friends to concentrate on the podcast.. i dont do dishes and listening while walking to school may lead to accidents aha.
-
How good was he for pathway to genius lecture today?! :D His dedication and passion is amazing!
-

QFT.. He is excellent! Hopefully he'll be doing a unit 4 revision lecture :)
-
unfortunately pathways to genius arent doing unit 4 lecture series because it was a 'one off fundraiser for charity purposes' (it says in the handout they gave to us at the end of the day)
but theres always access education (i think thats only 2.5 hours), unless douhcy chooses to do them at another company

are you sure that means they aren't doing unit 4? to me that sounds like it simply means they wont be doing it for charity purposes next time
-
yea it continues to say "because of this, there will not be a unit 4 lecture series unfortunately" - so guessing there wont be one
-
Douchy put my voicemail into his latest podcast :D
I totally screwed up my last sentence though ahaha
-
Hahaha good work :) I wish I had time to search through the podcast for it.
-

wow that was you?
Haha awesome :D
-
yep ;D I was curious if he'd really put voicemails into his podcasts, I think I'm the second person this year to send one.
I went nuts when he mentioned my voicemail :2funny:
-
Made another voicemail question that he put into the latest episode on neanderthals .. Keep a look out from 14:52 :P
