Customer Reviews
Easy summary of facsinating topics
David Corcoran does a fantastic job of covering the week's Science Times articles through original interviews with people involved with the topics. The podcast goes beyond reiterating the articles; it opens up a dialog with the experts on the topics. Must listen!
Great!
Henry Fountain is especially good, but all together this is a well orchestrated masterpiece! This is the best podcast out there, I guarentee it!
Quick, but not very informative
In their first episode regarding avian flu, the host refers to "less than 100 deaths", "less than 200 deaths" and "several hundred deaths". You might be better off reading the actual NY Times yourself.
