Plodcast - Nicola Tanner
If you're after a bit of "edutainment" I can recommend The Curious Cases of Rutherford and Fry, which has a longer podcast edition as well as being a Radio 4 show. It provides a lighthearted look at everyday scientific mysteries such as why do different musical instruments produce such a wide range of sounds, why do bad foods taste so good, and is anything truly random. Back in series 11 there was a particularly relevant episode looking at is there a limit to how fast humans can run, and would we be faster if we were quadrupeds! https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b07dx75g/episodes/downloads
