Podcasts and Radio
I've been interested in audio work since I built sound effects for college theater productions. Today, you can hear me on the radio as the occasional News Roundup presenter or guest host of Science Friday, as well as a guest on shows like Cool Science Radio. At New Scientist, I appeared on the podcast The World, the Universe and Us. At Scientific American, I hosted episodes of Tech Quickly, a show on the Science Quickly (formerly 60-Second Science) feed. At Popular Science, I helped develop and script the podcast Futuropolis.
