I love Musical Language! It’s one of my favorites too.

Great to see another Radiolab fan! Being a musician, one of my all-time favorite episodes is Musical Language, followed closely behind by the Emergence episode. I think about emergence all the time in my daily life now, and answering questions with ‘emergence’ has kind of become a running joke in our house. “Why did that restaurant get so popular?” “Emergence.” “What should be have for dinner tonight?” “Emergence.” “Does this outfit look good on me?” “Emergence.”

Welp, I just watched the War of the Worlds episode. it’s pretty good, but I wish they did more with the segment about how it relates to the news.

One more episode to go before I’m caught up. I’m debating listening to it Sunday or when I take another long drive for Thanksgiving.

I first heard about RadioLab while listening to a segment of one of their shows that was featured as part of a This American Life episode. Now I love RadioLab more than TAL. I’ve can’t wait for their new season of hour long episodes. The Morality and Mortality episodes are pretty high on my favorites list.

It’s good to find other people who love this show as much as I do.

Radiolab is one of my favorite programs, and along with a few others it whisks away my Saturday mornings at work. Not only is their show very entertaining and excellently produced, but I think it does great things for science literacy. Cheers to that!

I love Radiolab more than cold beer and warm dip.

Or was that near beer and a cold dip?

I always stop and listen wherever Krulwich shows up.

I’m a disturbingly large fan of Radiolab, and have been through all the archives, but saving the last few “mini” episodes that have been in the feed for a while… because I don’t WANT to get caught up because then I won’t have anything to look forward to. The War of the Worlds one is a rebroadcast/repodcast one and one of my favorites (I’m making my 11year old son read the book, listen to the original broadcast, and THEN listen to the radiolab episode so we can discuss it… I think it’s particularly poignant in this post election season when he’s just been inundated with dozens of fear-mongering adverts from both major parties). I can’t recall who first recommended it to me, but I can’t thank them enough.

It’s hilarious that you made this post this morning, because I subscribed to this podcast not 40 minutes ago before seeing this post. Radio Lab plays in holiday marathons on our NPR here in Indianapolis.
