Dumbing down Science
This show has had some topics that might as well have been drawn out of a hat. The worst so far was when Ira interviewed an author on the "Science of diets." The author cited her vacation with her husband to Italy, where they had seen "lots of obese people." Ergo the scientific conclusion was that the people of Europe were just as obese as Americans. Good science, huh! At least half the programs are astronomy oriented or based on NASA projects. There are plenty of good science podcasts. This isn't one of them.Read full review »

I used to love this show when I happen to catch it on NPR, now I can listen whenever I like. One critisizm however, Each episode is not catagorized, so my smartplaylists don't always catch it to put with my other science podcasts.Read full review »
