Future Tense
This podcast focuses on what many of us want to understand about science and technology: the cutting-edge stuff that's redefining how we interact with the world. Want to learn about the exploding and largely un-evaluated world of mental health apps that are changing how we cope with challenges? Or how new technologies are shifting how humans understand and interact with animals? What about how we safeguard privacy in a world where we send our personal data all over the world? Host Antony Funnell has you covered. |

Oligies
In each episode of the show, science correspondent and comedy podcaster Alie Ward interviews someone whose expertise qualifies as an -ology. That might be anything from volcanology to sexology to sports and performance psychology. Ward takes these super in-depth topics and — with the help of her guest — has a great conversation full of fascinating stories and funny moments. |

The Skeptics Guide to the Universe
Fascination with science and future technology shouldn't blind us to the fact that one of the keys towards real understanding is skepticism. Enter "The Skeptics' Guide" with host Dr. Steven Novella and crew. In the show, they take a look at the science stories captivating the world, trendy ideas, controversies, conspiracy theories — and then they dig into what we really know about these topics. The team also interviews experts who are often able to call BS on trendy but unproven (or disproven) topics. It's a great dose of reality delivered in digestible form. |

Science VS
"Science Vs" doesn't shy away from controversial or newsy topics. In fact, it embraces them and takes a look at what the science actually says. Past episodes have broken down what research actually tells us about how gun ownership affects violent crime, the causes of the obesity epidemic, what really works for hair loss, and whether the world could run on 100% renewable energy. Science Vs is your team of friendly fact checkers that blow up your firmly held opinions and replace them with science. |

Undiscovered
