Biodork Asks

What are your favorite science resources?

 

Biodork (aka Brianne Bilyeu) is a blogger of my acquaintance.  She is also a host on the Atheist Talk radio program (and podcast) originating here in the Twin Cities.  She's preparing for an interview on the topic of resources for adults who want to learn more about science. I answered her question thus...

Science-related podcasts I consume on a regular basis include:

• Astronomycast
• Big Picture Science
• Brain Science Podcast
• For Good Reason
• Monstertalk
• Point of Inquiry
• Quackcast
• Skeptiko (but only as a sort of vaccination against flawed critical thinking)
• Skeptoid
• The Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe
• Token Skeptic

There are many iTunes and iTunes U science courses.  Here are a pair I’ve listened to twice:

• Astronomy 161: Introduction to Solar System Astronomy
• Astronomy 141: Life in the Universe

Science-related blogs I scan daily:

• Bad Science
• BPS Research Digest
• Bruce M. Hood
• Cognitive Edge
• Desmogblog
• Discover Blogs
• Mindhacks
• Neurologicablog
• NIOSH Science Blog
• Respectful Insolence
• Science Based Medicine
• Skepticblog
• The Aviationist
• Token Skeptic
• Universe Today

There have been many others I no longer follow and iTunes and the iTunes U offer many more choices.  Find what works for you.

UPDATE: I also like NOVA on PBS by way of TPT.  Oh yeah, and real books.
