Needed now more than ever

The best podcast for news on science and skepticism, and commentary on pseudoscience.

Informative and fun

This is definitely the podcast I look forward to listening every week. Their consistent use of primary resources for not only the scientific developments but also what they criticize is remarkable. They also have a very good sense of humor.
