Customer Reviews
A little bit of everything
A great overview of science news. It doesn't go as in-depth as I'd like but I suppose there are other podcasts for that. It hasn't updated in a whole, though.
This has been cancelled
Please note there are no new episodes.
It's necessary to vote this out of the top 100.
Audio quality has degraded
The topics are still interesting, but sometimes the audio quality is just way to poor to listen to. It's frustrating and disappointing, because I know they could be better. The telephone interviews often sound particularly bad. I wish NYT would dedicate some of my print subscription fee to improving the audio quality of the Science Times podcast.
