What is Science Friday? Science Friday is a weekly science talk show, broadcast live over public radio stations nationwide from 2-4pm Eastern time as part of NPR's 'Talk of the Nation' programming. Each week, we focus on science topics that are in the news and try to bring an educated, balanced discussion to bear on the scientific issues at hand. Panels of expert guests join Science Friday's host, Ira Flatow, a veteran science journalist, to discuss science - and to take questions from listeners during the call-in portion of the program.
Who is Ira Flatow?
Ira Flatow is the host and executive producer of Science Friday. A veteran science correspondent in a variety of media, he is also the founder of Talking Science.
Why don't you do a show about....
We love to get show suggestions. You just might hear your idea on the air! For example, the idea for our recent show on the 100th anniversary of the discovery of the electron came, in part, from a listener suggestion. So, make a lens on your favorite science topic, and we'll consider it for discussion on the radio!
