How can we, humans, look at our relationship to nature differently? In season three of Going Wild, on top of stories about animals, we invite you to journey through the entire ecological web — from the tiniest of life forms to apex predators — alongside the scientists, activists and adventurers who study it. Wildlife biologist and host Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant has been studying wild animals in their natural habitats all over the world for years. Our award-winning podcast takes you inside the hidde ...

Flash Forward is a show about possible (and not so possible) future scenarios. What would the warranty on a sex robot look like? How would diplomacy work if we couldn’t lie? Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.) Hosted and produced by award winning science journalist Rose Eveleth, each episode combines audio drama and journalism to go deep on potential tomorrows, and uncovers what those futures might re ...

Each week we bring you a new, in-depth exploration of the space where science and society collide. We’re committed to the idea that making an effort to understand the world around you though science and critical thinking can benefit everyone—and lead to better decisions. We want to find out what’s true, what’s left to discover, and why it all matters.

A fun-filled discussion of the big, mind-blowing, unanswered questions about the Universe. In each episode, Daniel Whiteson (a Physicist who works at CERN) and Jorge Cham (a popular online cartoonist) discuss some of the simple but profound questions that people have been wondering about for thousands of years, explaining the science in a fun, shorts-wearing and jargon-free way.

In this episode of Breaking Math, host Autumn sits down with authors Christophe Gole and Nancy Pick to explore the fascinating world of mathematical patterns in plants, inspired by their new book Do Plants Know Math?. Dive into the intersection of mathematics and biology, as they discuss the historical context of plant mathematics and how concepts like the Fibonacci sequence, the golden ratio, and spiral formations reveal nature's inherent mathematical beauty. The conversation uncovers the optimization of plant structures, the significance of women in mathematics, and includes insightful recommendations for further reading.
Tune in to learn how math in nature plays a pivotal role in shaping the world around us, from phyllotaxis to fractals, and the broader implications for AI, physics, and topology.
