Wild Thing
Foxtopus InkWild Thing is a long-form, narrative podcast about the obsessions that capture our imaginations. This sound-rich and deeply reported show examines the relationship between science and society—that point where scientific inquiry collides with our very human desire to find answers, even when there are none. Whether it's seeking out Sasquatch, looking skyward for extraterrestrial life, or probing the power of the atom, exploring the unknown helps us better understand ourselves. Every season, host Laura Krantz tackles a brand new topic, so be sure to start with the first episode for each one.

I lived in Idaho Falls during the time of this accident and was blissfully aware of the entire episode. Of course, I was a teenager and not exactly our with the latest. The entire series is wonderfully informative. Ms. Krantz has a great voice, a sense of humor even in this grim tale, and keeps me fascinated at all times. Thanks for doing this podcast.

United Statesa year ago - Not a word about Uranium EXTRACTION
The actual problem with the fossil fuel economy starts with the reliance upon extraction of a NON-RENEWABLE resource.

Not only the waste of nuclear energy is deadly to biological life forms, NOT ONLY HUMANS, but radioactive fuel is deadly in the raw form. It is a deadly, planet killing technology from beginning to end. When someone tells you who they... more
