Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 35 ratings
  • Good podcast

    Really appreciate the uploads, only issue is when the full show is uploaded some weeks it can be rather glitchy, it’s almost like bits of audio is cut out or skipped and it can be rather annoying. Some weeks the full show can be over 3hr 40 mins yet others it’ll be just on 3hrs and it sounds rather choppy. Something to work on.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Science - Dr Karl Kruszelnicki with Pat Panetta - Sat 04 Apr, 2026
Q: Can antimatter be stored safely, and what would a practical antimatter experiment look like?
Antimatter is stored by creating a near-perfect vacuum, surrounding it with a copper shield, and suspending it in a magnetic field, often at very low temperatures to minimize interactions with normal matter; the experiments focus on testing whether antimatter can be kept separate long enough to study its properties.
