Thank you so much Mary Ann for your kind words. I’ll be leaving this site up for a while, but in here are some podcasts I would highly recommend because I listen to them all the time: Hidden Brain, Science Vs, and Invisibilia.
It is May 19 2020 and just found your podcast which I’m sad will go away. I’m thanking you in advance because I see what an amazing legacy of material you’ve produced. I’m afraid you will disappear before I can express gratitude and will listen to what I can till it’s gone but do you have a list of podcast recommendations like yours as an alternative once you’re are gone for the curious, interested student?
