Podcast appearances and mentions of christopher intagliata

Comic book superheroes use and abuse physics for their supernatural powers. But how many can actually explain the physics behind gravitation or electromagnetism? In The Dialogues,  graphic novel by physicist Clifford Johnson, the heroes are scientists—and though they have no special powers beyond their scientific abilities, the characters address everything from the mysteries of dark energy to the possibility of immortality.In this interview from 2018, black hole physicist Janna Levin joins Clifford Johnson to discuss the quantum questions vexing physicists today—and why black holes might be the perfect place to find the answers.Universe of Art is hosted and produced by D. Peterschmidt, who also wrote the music. The original segment was produced by Christopher Intagliata. Our show art was illustrated by Abelle Hayford.

Episode 96: If you follow local government, whether in big cities or small towns, you'll undoubtably hear debates about parking. There is often little agreement about how to pay for parking, how much to require and where to put it. The recent book by Henry Graber, “Paved Paradise: How Parking Explains the World,” is taking a critical look at our country's obsession with parking. The hosts discuss why such policies can hurt cities and often cause a lack of affordable housing. Links to stories discussed during the podcast: America has eight parking spaces for every car. Here's how cities are rethinking that land, by Daniel Baldwin Hess and Jeffrey Rehler, Fast Company Why the U.S. builds more three-car garages than one-bedroom apartments, by Connor Donevan, Christopher Intagliata and Juana Summers, National Public Radio About the hosts: Scott Rada is social media manager with Lee Enterprises, and Richard Kyte is the director of the D.B.

Please check out this week's musical guest Senrall! Links will be in the shows below. This week we look at short-form podcast 60-Second Science. Transcript:Hey Pod lovers. I'm your host Marie and  If you're joining us for the first time: Welcome! The Mastercast is a podcast recommendation show that brings you a brand new non-spoiler binge-worthy review every week of the best podcasts in a short and sweet 2-3 minute summary on everything you could want to know, from the number of hosts to on average how long you can expect each episode to be. New episodes come out every Monday. You can find the week's other reviews on the show's social on Instagram @themastercast and Twitter @mastercastpods. If you like what you hear and want to help out this independent show you can find me on Buy me a coffee by searching The Mastercast. I'd really appreciate it. This week's review is on60-Second Science Okay, let's start off by disclosing that this podcast from Scientific American hasn't had 60 second episodes in some time but they're still very short form at around an average length of six minutes. The slight change hasn't meant much to the listeners of this extremely popular pod that's so far ran for 16 years, debuting in 2006 and maintaining an average star of 4.4 out of 5. With such a span it's no wonder they've published over 3,000 episodes of summaries of the latest research in every subject of science including astronomy, chemistry, biology, earth sciences, mathematics, and so much more. If you want to hear the entire backlog you'll have to check out the show's website as many podcast players only have the last 500 available. It's hosted by a revolving cast of scientific journalists who have included Karen Hopkin, Christopher Intagliata, Jason G. Goldman, and Steve Mirsky. There are fascinating stories, interviews from experts, and the occasional pun. Despite its popularity, a common complaint about the show is that its political opinions make it less objective than it should be. I didn't find it to be unbearable but present. As is often the case, microphone quality improves with time but is lacking in earlier episodes. In the latest episode that was published just before the pod's winter break executive producer Jeffery DelViscio revealed that there will be some changes coming. The show will be getting a new name, podcast art, publishing schedule, and finally resign itself to making slightly longer episodes. There's no word yet when the next episode will be out, but it's promised to be soon. Episodes are meant to stay relatively short, and come out three times a week: Monday, Wednesday and Friday. For longer episodes fans can always tune into the company's long-form science podcast Science Talk. Overall a great podcast that lets you stay up to date in science news without a ton of investment. I recommend sneaking in episodes in between some of the multiple episode series you listen to in a day for a little palette cleanser. Try starting with my favorite episodes “Artificial Intelligence Learns to Talk Back to Bigots” and “Coyotes Eat Everything from Fruits to Cats.” Similar pods include Babes of Science, Story Collider, and Transistor. All right, guys, that's all for this week but  remember if you want to see the cover art, sources or the written transcript for this episode be sure to check out the show notes. You can also send us an email at themastercastpodlist@gmail.com. There you can tell us if you have music you would like played on the show or submit a podcast to be recommended. This week's music came from electronic music artist Senrall.  The song featured was “Electric Ocean.” For more from Senrall find them on soundcloud. Links will be in the description as well. Remember to share the show with the pod lovers in your life and tune in next Monday.
