Filed Under (Podcasts) by Angry Hippie on 30-03-2011

In this episode, Sinead and the Angry Hippie take a look at radioactivity. With the situation at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan, Science Dude has been getting some questions related to this event and what exactly the data being discussed means. So Sinead is here with some context on the doses and measurements being bandied about, and some interesting history on the atom and radioactivity. As always, we hope that you enjoy this creative and informative look at science as much as we did putting it together.

Podcast Episode: International Women’s Day Special

Filed Under (Podcasts) by Angry Hippie on 07-03-2011

In this episode, Sinead and the Angry Hippie take an entire episode to honor women in science for International Women’s Day. Rather than rehashing the sexism in science rants that we have covered in the past, though we do touch on them here and there, we look at the methods of old, compared to those of today to see not only how women’s roles in science have come more to the foreground, but also how the methodologies have changed as well. With a handful of examples, and a couple of digressions, the special episode has come together, and as always, we hope that you enjoy this creative and informative look at science as much as we did putting it together.
