Re: [Phys-l] science podcast recommendations?

["M. Horton" <scitch@verizon.net>]

I also like 60-second science, 60-second earth, and 60-second mind.  I 
listen to The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe, Freakonomics, Skeptoid, and a 
variety of profs from iTunes University.  Shameless plug, you might also 
check out the Science Misconception Podcast at 
http://scienceinquirer.wikispaces.com/misconception and the RIMS AVID 
podcast on iTunes U (both hosted by yours truly).  I've at times listened to 
Naked Scientists, Science Friday, and the Berkeley Groks but just don't have 
enough time in the car to listen to them all anymore.
