The podcast I reviewed was hosted by Natasha Mitchels. It is an MP3 of a national radio broadcast so the production quality is excellent. The podcast I reviewed included an interview with Cognitive scientist Guy Claxton who presented some fascinating insights concerning the unconscious. Other podcast topics have included Nueroethics and the 21st Century Brain and The Origins of Memory.
The focus of this podcast is all things related to psychology. This is one of my personal passions and interests so I will be a regular subscriber to this podcast. I would highly recommend this podcast to anyone with similar interests.

A mish-mash of popular science research of the mind. The telegenic guests seem to always be on the verge of a breathtaking new discovery, or at least a few novel ideas which will provide them with university tenure. Recreational drugs seem to be a popoular topic.
This is a syndicated radio program which sometimes syndicates (but does not podcast) content from the BBC, which makes the program descriptions a little confusing. Production and audio quality are professional and radio quality. Programs are 25 minutes.

I love psychology and I found this podcast from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation to be very intelligent and fascinating. The host interviews leading psychologists in Australia who are experts in a certain aspect of our minds. I listened to a podcast which psychologically deconstructed the modern day self help movement and it was great. Every week it looks like a new excellent topic. I'm subscribing to this one.

2008-05-10 Quitting the habit: neurobiology, addiction and the insidious ciggie
Author: ABC Radio National
Sat, May 10, 2008
Smokers cling to the ciggies for dear life, knowing it will likely be a much shorter one. An anti-smoking drug released in Australia targets nicotine receptors in the brain, working differently to traditional nicotine replacement therapies. But are we too fixed on a quick fix for addiction? And, the challenge of investigating post-marketing reports that the drug may trigger suicidal thoughts and behaviour in some users. Real side effect of the meds, or part of nicotine withdrawal?

2008-05-03 Disembodied brains, culture and science: Indigenous lives under gaze [Part 2 of 2]

Maori people believe the body is derived from the earth, and returns to the ancestral earth at death—complete. The flesh, and all its bits, are sacred. The new Human Tissue Bill in New Zealand has provoked debate over who owns your body at death—you or your family? The Maori Party argues the legislation is Western-centric and racist. And, a young Maori scientist working with post-mortem brain tissue is breaking new ground, to keep her lab life 'culturally safe', in consultation with her tribe.

The incredible saga of Ishi, California´s last 'wild' Indian, is the stuff of American folklore. It´s also the quest for a lost brain, taken from Ishi´s tuberculosis ravaged body at death—only to be rediscovered and repatriated 80 years later. And next week—a young Maori scientist working with post-mortem brain tissue is breaking new ground, to keep her lab life 'culturally safe'.

2008-04-19 Stone Age brains in 21st century skulls
Author: ABC Radio National
Sat, Apr 19, 2008
Front up to your shrink, and you bring a menagerie of hunter gatherers, anteaters and reptiles from your ancestral past with you. Or so Professor Daniel Wilson and Dr Gary Galambos believe. Both clinical psychiatrists, they provocatively challenge their profession to look to the Darwinian roots of human neuroses, and the evolutionary battleground that is our stone-age brain.
