Outstanding Podcast

This podcast is one of the best on the web. It contains information about Astronomy and related subjects, discussing and explaining the issues arising in the science in easily understood terms. After finding it late in 2008, I liked it so much that I went back and downloaded and listened to all the earlier podcasts. Thoroughly enjoyable!
