Science is full of jargon that sometimes require a PHD to understand but in this podcast by an Ordinary Guy the subjects are striped to their essences by the experts that he interviews so the general public can understand and learn some of the fundamentals of science. The experts interviewed reveal their subjects with passion making the listen easy and pleasurable. Along the way you can't help but learn something interesting, enriching and revealing.
One of my favourite science podcasts.
Brains Matter is one of those special shows that reflect how great research that leads to excellent content. This podcast covers a wide range of science, technology and skepticism topics that are deftly showcased in interviews by its host 'The Ordinary Guy', who is anything but 'ordinary' with his enthusiasm. Very educational and one to keep subscribing to.

The Ordinary Guy is not ordinary and either is this podcast! There is a greath breadth of topic including interviews with such people as Seth Shostak from SETI, the show comes out regularly and if you are lucky you might get to be "listener of the day" - everything you need in a science podcast!
