Tweedledee Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I like these. You can subscribe for free and they appear in your email every couple of days when some astronomy or science news happens. You just click the link in the email and it takes you straight to the web page. />http://spaceweather.com/ />http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2012/11jun_landingsite/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fluke Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Im a big fan of Jodrell Banks/Manchester University's twice monthly Jodcast. Well worth a listen. I even got a mention in the May extra edition lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone got any others? Yeah love that one, love how Dr Pamela Gaye explains stuff, just a shame the "weekly" podcast is not so much "weekly"......

Guest Steve Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 There is a massive archive though - I've just started downloading them as MP3s and playing them in the car when I can concentrate. Just listening to their 3 part talks on astro photography - quite basic but that is what I need at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Type-R Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 The archive is no good when you have been listening to them for years, I have listened to the lot and am currently waiting for new material. Never tire of the two of them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Ah, but for a newbie it presents a whole new challenge - shall I cherry pick or start to go through them by date, or maybe all the Planetary ones first... decisions, decision! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fluke Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 More science/comedy than Astronomy, Prof Brian Cox's Infinite Monkey Cage back catalogue of Radio 4 shows is available as podcasts on iTunes for free. The new run of shows also starts tomorrow (Mon) at 4:30pm on R4 if anyone is interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Im a big fan of Jodrell Banks/Manchester University's twice monthly Jodcast. Well worth a listen. Listening to this now. It is so nice to listen to stuff that isn't 'popularised (=dumbed down). I find so much of the BBC type output to be really frustrating - everything pitched at the lowest common denominator and why does there always have to be a comedian!?
