D20chickA little bit of everythingA great overview of science news. It doesn't go as in-depth as I'd like but I suppose there are other podcasts for that. It hasn't updated in a whole, though.

Saj in nygreat science podcastPlease bring these back

ManoaRdSad to see it end. Ethics is not science.This was an interesting discussion of varied science topics moderated by one who knows how to ask questions of scientists and science journalists. It seems to be replaced by three self-styled ethicists who do not deal with science. As it is now, the podcast is closer to religion. I stopped subscribing.

Meg GreerBAby Please Don't GoPlease do not discontinue the NYT Science Times podcast! I listen to every one of them. My household subscribes to the NYT Home Delivery, the online version, the iPad app, in addition to the Science Times podcast. My spouse takes the Times to work in the morning, so I never get to read the Science section. I depend upon the podcast, listened to as I walk my dog or do tasks around the house, for my Science news. Podcasts are just getting traction! This one is on the Top Charts! Don't let it drop... Yours, Meg Greer, Wellesley MA

sick of idiotsAudio quality has degradedThe topics are still interesting, but sometimes the audio quality is just way to poor to listen to. It's frustrating and disappointing, because I know they could be better. The telephone interviews often sound particularly bad. I wish NYT would dedicate some of my print subscription fee to improving the audio quality of the Science Times podcast.

PaintsheetsThe girls voice. Yikes!Good information delivered by a girl with a squeaky, non-radio voice talking at the speed of light on the night I listened. Don't they interview these people before they give them a job?

JazzCriticHuman swims at 160 MPH!Seriously, common sense alone should have told David Corcoran that Diana Nyad couldn't have swam 28 miles around manhattan in 7 minutes. Really embarrassing IMO.

TECKY2018I love the programGreat show while driving to/ from work.

LauraRJFairI feel like if you're used to WNYC's Radiolab or a similar show, this isn't the podcast for you. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I thought it'd be more entertaining.

PalojInterestingInteresting podcast. Would have a higher rating if I felt that the topics were stuff I hadn't heard much on or had new perspectives.

sailing ladyGreat, interesting, easy to digest.This podcast is the perfect combination of interesting, yet understandible topics, that have not been too dumbed down. As a non-scientist, I love the podcast. Some brief stories, and at least one more in-depth conversation per pod-cast. Not an exact repeat of the printed version, but always touches on the main story. Also good about this podcast is that it's still relevant even if you're listening to it a couple of weeks later.

DharmaLogosSummary of stuff I didn't know.These 15-20 minute podcasts feature brief interviews with scientists, professors, and writers discussing some of the latest discoveries, theories, and applications of science. Easily digestible bits of moderately entertaining science knowledge that I didn't already know.

scottso17Easy summary of facsinating topicsDavid Corcoran does a fantastic job of covering the week's Science Times articles through original interviews with people involved with the topics. The podcast goes beyond reiterating the articles; it opens up a dialog with the experts on the topics. Must listen!

lisa from IndianaQuick, but not very informativeIn their first episode regarding avian flu, the host refers to "less than 100 deaths", "less than 200 deaths" and "several hundred deaths". You might be better off reading the actual NY Times yourself.
