Science Friday
Fridays, 2 p.m.

Covering the outer reaches of space to the tiniest microbes in our bodies, Science Friday is the trusted source for news about science, technology, and other cool stuff. Each week host Ira Flatow mixes it up with people in the know and those who want to be. It's brain fun, for curious people.

For over 22 years, Science Friday has brought the top stories in science to radio listeners. Host Ira Flatow is a veteran NPR science correspondent and award-winning TV journalist. He has discussed cutting-edge science stories on a range of programs, including the four-part PBS series Big Ideas. For six years Flatow was host and writer for the Emmy award-winning Newton's Apple on PBS, and he has been a science reporter for CBS, Westinghouse, and CNBC. He's also the author of numerous books, most recently, Present at the Future.
