By completely random internet-clicking coincidence I recently came upon the Mr Science podcast. Mr Science is 27-year old Marc West, from Sydney, and he describes the podcast as follows: “You don’t have to be boring to be into science – and you don’t need to be wacky and zany either. We look at science in a social context, and always try to be entertaining and relevant.”

Topics that have been discussed on the episodes I listened to: beer, speed dating, and music — all things people like to talk about anyway, only here they get a subtle science angle. (In that respect it reminded me a little bit of Inkling)
I like the fact that most episodes are conversations between people. Listening to the beer episodes, for example, was just like having beers with some guys in a pub (instead of walking to the subway in freezing weather, as I was doing), and the fact that conversations were about science weren’t even that obvious.
