Radiolab+Podcast+Assignment

 One of my favorite shows to listen to on the radio is **Radiolab** with Jad Abrumad and Robert Krulwich. These two guys integrate reporting and documentary in a talking conversation about various topics they want to inform the public about. Most of the topics are science related but even I, not a science geek, am interested and engaged because of the way they present the material. Throughout their informal dialogue are sound bites, music and engaging discussions that make me want to listen and are informative as well.

Numbers Whether you love 'em or hate 'em, chances are you rely on numbers every day of your life. Where do they come from, and what do they really do for us? We bring you stories of how they confuse us, connect us, and even reveal secrets about us.

Animal Minds When we gaze into the eyes of a wild animal, or even a beloved pet, can we ever really know what they might be thinking?
