We want to find out what’s true, what’s left to discover, and why it all matters.

Excellent podcast
I love this podcast. It covers a huge range of STEM topics without being tired or repetitive. It’s great for the morning commute and isn’t difficult to understand if you don’t have a science background or specialised knowledge. Love it.
