For science podcasts, a few with varying amounts of ecological content I recommend the following: Hakai Magazine Audio Edition, Mongabay Newscast, Nature Podcast, Science Magazine Podcast, Science Vs., Scientific American Podcast, and terrestrial. Best, Garth. On Tue, Jul 10, 2018 at 11:43 AM Samuel Raasch <sraasc...@gmail.com<mailto:sraasc...@gmail.com>> wrote: Awesome, can't wait to listen. I was just complaining to a colleague about the (perceived) lack of good podcasts that focus on conservation/biology/ecology. Good luck! Anyone else have favorite science podcasts (other than RadioLab or Startalk) that this listserv should check out?

Our goal is to discuss some of the big ideas in biology with experts in the field, but in a fun and engaging way for a broad audience. We're up to episode 6 right now, having talked to Carl Zimmer about the future of biology, Barbara Han about predicting disease epidemics, Jon Harrison and Jim Brown about scaling, Sheila Patek about fast movements in shrimp, Denis Noble about randomness, and Robert Dudley about why primates consume alcohol. Next up is Massimo Pigliucci on phenotypic plasticity and niche construction. In the coming weeks, we'll also be posting episodes with Fred Tauber, an immunologist covering the concept of self, Vinnie Cassone on time-keeping in animals, Sara Walker on a universal theory of life, and Patty Brennan on genital evolution. Please check it out and let us know what you think on our Facebook page, or just spread the word over Twitter and your other social media favorites. We're also very interested to learn what big biology is to you and who you'd like to hear on an episode, so share your ideas directly with us via email or post them to our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/BigBiologypodcast/). We hope you like it! Marty and Art
