Episode 13 : “Sports Science” edition (audio)




Read Science! show

Summary: Streamed live on 19 September 2013 Our especially brave guest for our lucky-thirteenth show was David Epstein, author of "The Sports Gene : Inside the Science of Extraordinary Athletic Performance." As always we had a wide-ranging conversation that included not only engaging topics, amusing anecdotes, and fascinating facts from his book, but a discussion about how to communicate necessary and interesting stories -- about science or most anything else worthy of the time -- that take some time to tell. We had something for sports enthusiasts and science enthusiasts, and for those who happen to be both, all in one great conversation.
