How EarBuds Podcast Collective works:

Each week, a theme is chosen by one of our curators. That curator finds 5 podcast episodes (from anywhere!) to go along with that theme. Listen to these podcasts by clicking on the links above, through the RadioPublic app, or you can find (most of) them on your favorite podcast app (iTunes, Stitcher, Overcast…)

PODCAST CURATOR’S NAME: Erik Jones, creator and brain behind the Hurt Your Brain newsletter. 

WHY THIS THEME?: Science is so much more approachable and fun when it is told as a story. Here are some of my all-time favorite science-focused episodes that blew my mind and taught me some really interesting things in the process.

TUESDAY EPISODE (10/3): Cosmic Vertigo – Black Holes Don’t Suck31 minutes
