Favorite Physical Sciences Podcasts?

[DaveE]

I need to find some more good podcasts about the physical sciences. Searching the interwebs gives lots of popular general science stuff like Science Friday, Sean Carroll, and Neil DeGrasse-Tyson; those are ok, but I want stuff aimed for people that know calculus, if you get my drift.

So what are your favorites? Why?

I'll break the rules and add my favorites from biology; because if I knew good physical science picks, I wouldn't need to ask for help, LOL.

Any of Vincent Racaniello's TWiX series:
This Week in...
- Virology (the very best source of SARS-CoV-2 information, IMO)
- Microbiology
- Parasitism (The most understandable of the bunch, pre-COVID-19 anyway)
- Evolution (not about Apes, it's all microbiology, DNA and such.)
- Neuroscience
and
Immune (barely comprehensible to mere mortals; because, you know, your immune system is the most complex thing in the universe)

Hi,

I would follow Jim Al-Khalili, nuclear physicist from Surrey University (UK). He has a program at BBC, and many documentaries and (audio)books. He explore many cutting-edge science topics, and some times you would need a bit of physics to follow.

Thank you for the TWIX series recommendation.
