Questions, Questions
September 19th, 2008 by Russell DaviesThere have probably been programmes like this on Radio 4 since before the dawn of time (1972). I remember Enquire Within very fondly. But Questions, Questions seems particularly well-suited to the interactive world of now. It’s a simple affair - people write in about stuff they’d like to know about, and the programme makes a little feature which answers and explains some of them. And, perhaps more importantly, the programme forums are abuzz with chat and opinion. This particular issue features well-dressing in Derbyshire, Mobius strips and the design of biscuits. MP3 here.

You might like to also check out a very good science phone-in show “Science on Mornings” by ABC on ‘triple j’ in Oz presented by Zan Rowe with Dr Karl. Quite a fascinating range of questions are answered. It certainly makes one feel as if aspects of science are understandable to non-experts.
