==> NPR Science Friday: Science
Friday is a weekly science talk show, broadcast live over public radio stations
nationwide from 2-4 PM Eastern time as part of NPR's 'Talk of the Nation' programming.
Each week, we focus on science topics that are in the news and try to bring
an educated, balanced discussion to bear on the scientific issues at hand.
Panels of expert guests join Science Friday's host, Ira Flatow, a veteran science
journalist, to discuss science - and to take questions from listeners during
the call-in portion of the program.
