Check out this fantastic article written by Mary Spiro at the Baltimore Science News Examiner. She listed the Defense Department’s Armed with Science as one of “eight science podcasts you shouldn’t miss”, along with other notables, Science Weekly, This Week in Science, Short Science, Nature’s podcast, Science Friday, The Science Show, and The Naked Scientists.
Here’s the part about Armed with Science:
Two really great shows can be heard mid-week. The first, Armed with Science, originates from the Pentagon and is hosted by John Ohab, an emerging media strategist for the Department of Defense and a PhD in neuroscience. Ohab interviews scientists who work with the military on everything from nantechnology to medicine to psychology. The focus is how scientific disciplines apply to military applications, but the content of this well-produced show ought to interest practically anyone. The approach is straight news and the format is short, just 30 minutes. If you listen to the live webcast (2 p.m. ET), you can email or tweet your questions and they will be answered live by Ohab’s guest. The show is archived so you can listen whenever you like.
