COMEDY

A Podcast of Unnecessary Detail

Looking for a science comedy podcast that doesn't skimp on the details? We've got you. Join us once a month as three different science stories are dissected every month by the trio behind comedy phenomenon Festival of the Spoken Nerd. Stand-up mathematician Matt Parker, experiments maestro Steve Mould and geek songstress Helen Arney are experts at investigating things that might not seem particularly interesting on the surface, but become fascinating when you get down to the nitty and / or gritty.

SOCIETY & CULTURE

Uinta Triangle

Australian trekker Eric Robinson loved to hike. He had a passion for walking in the wilderness, sometimes spending weeks alone in the outdoors. Until one time, he didn’t come home. Eric vanished into a mountain range that has a habit of swallowing people.

Uinta Triangle tells the story of the desperate search for Eric Robinson. Host Dave Cawley (journalist and creator of the hit true crime series COLD) follows in Eric’s footsteps. And he joins Eric’s wife, Marilyn Koolstra, in her worldwide hunt for answers about her missing husband.

NEWS COMMENTARY

The Green Elephant in the Room

We all know about the doom and gloom associated with environmental issues. We need to tell ourselves a new story. Instead let's talk about energy independence, green jobs, livable cities, clean water, clean air, and healthy children. This is where politics, perceptions, and life-style meet the catastrophe that is unfolding in front of our eyes. Here's a suggestion — subscribe, tune-in, and stop doom-scrolling.

SOCIETY & CULTURE

Psychoactive

Drugs, drugs, drugs. Almost everyone uses them. Almost everyone has an opinion about them. Drug policy pioneer Ethan Nadelmann gets to the bottom of our strange relationship to drugs by talking with those who love them, hate them, and study them.
