About the show

Talking Science is a podcast about how the universe works — from the impossibly dense hearts of neutron stars to the microscopic machinery of stem cells, from the dark energy pushing galaxies apart to the muscle in your chest that never stops beating.

Each episode takes one big idea in physics, biology, earth science or beyond, and unpacks it in plain, curious language — no jargon, no prior degree required. Just the story of how we know what we know, and the questions science is still wrestling with.

New episodes are available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music and wherever you get your podcasts.
