The Sub Standard Model
This is a subjectively comedic podcast by scientists for scientists.
“On this sciencey show, we answer the questions you never thought to ask, did not want to ask and did not ask.”
This podcast has been carefully crafted after binging an alarming number of science shows and spotting the same pattern: everyone sticks to the safest, most mainstream topics, wheels out the same three analogies, and then tiptoes away from any actual depth. So we thought, “If you can’t beat them, join them" (but with tighter editing and more science). The result is clear, entertaining storytelling that goes properly deep, yet stays fun enough that you barely notice you’re learning until you have learned.
Intro: Sneaky Sonja, Luella Gren
