Podcasts

A quick and short introduction as my mac just crashed and deleted the last thousand word post I meticulously typed out.

I have recently gotten into educational podcasts. It started when I just felt the urge to understand special relativity.

So my favourites are "AstronomyCast" and "QuackCast." The former packed full of really interesting facts explaining everything to why Pluto is no longer a planet (Episode 1) to Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity (Episode 9) to String Theory (Episode 31). The latter is a sarcastic doctor who dismembers what he calls Supplements, Complementary and Alternative Medicines (SCAMs). It's really quite interesting and he talks a lot about things which I once assumed had a grounding in science, (eg Acupuncture)

Can you suggest me some more with brief discriptions?

There's only 2 pod casts I listen to and they are both in the comedy section,
Ones the [Bill Burr Monday Morning podcast], goes for about an hour and usually involves him making uninformed observations and ranting about American sports on kinda weird tangents, and obviously trying to plug his comedic career.
The other is [The Joe Rogan Experience] Which is more of a chilled out stoner interview kind of thing.
Not every ones cup of tea but hey for light relief and if you don't take yourself too seriously give them a try.
