Limited topics, host sometimes annoys
I started out listening to this thinking it was a great show, but after a month or two the themes appear to repeat and it gets somewhat wearisome to listen to the third show about bird flu (say) without much variation in the story. Ira Flatow also tends to interrupt the guests at rather impertinent times and tends to ask irrelevant questions that are not always intelligent. I understand the need to get the show rolling and the need to connect science to the general public but I don't agree with the way Ira does it.Read full review »

More reviews of Science Friday
I was never very science oriented or successful academically. TOTN SF has really turned that around now that I'm an adult and I haven't missed an episode in years. The podcasts make that even easier.Read full review »

Science Friday is a great show. I have no formal training in science but I find it interesting to learn on my own, and this show has really helped me do just that. Thanks Ira!

If you have a general interest in science and seperating a lot of the rhetoric from the facts surrounding current issues in science I highly reccomend this show.
