Science – New podcasts

  • What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants.

    Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to ex-Hasidic Jew Julia Haart and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins.

Each episode, neurotech industry veterans Stephen Hou and Nick Halper discuss a work of fiction that involves neuroscience in some way. Nick and Stephen will dig into the plot, unpack the science/technology, and if necessary, mercilessly roast the filmmakers for scientific or cinematic missteps.

  • Everything We Need is a climate podcast about making changes in our lives for the better, and re-thinking what we need to thrive now. The impacts of climate change are not just some vague future threat. They are touching the lives of communities in Australia today, and we know what we need to do. Adapting means dealing with food and water insecurity, supply chain issues, housing shortages, threats to our health, the rising cost of living, and planning how we support the next generation. Get inspired by the stories of people and communities in central Victoria who are not just reacting to the effects of climate change, but tackling them proactively. Hear what you can do in your home, neighbourhood and community to help protect the things you love.

    Martyn Stewart has spent his lifetime on a mission: to record the natural sounds of our planet. Itโ€™s a story that will take us from a council estate in Birmingham England and ultimately take him to every corner of the planet.  From Belize to the Arctic Wildlife Refuge, from Denali to the Galapagos, to some of the most inhospitable locations geographically and politically. He will be attacked by lions and crocodiles, arrested in Japan for filming the annual dolphin slaughter and then find himself in long periods of isolation, in remote corners of the world waiting for 30 seconds of a that perfect sound.  This is ultimately a love story โ€“ dedicated to our natural world and to the people who spend their lives aiming to give it a voice.
