Good balance of guests
Good balance of science and comedy
I love this podcast. It has a very good balance between the hosts and guests with Prof Brian Cox bringing the science and Robin Ince bringing the comedy (with Robin usually making fun of Brian). They (usually) have about 4 guests per episode, 3 of which are from the science field and the other one will be a comedian. This podcast, as you would expect is science heavy, however, the comedy aspect from Robin and the comedian guest lightens the typically heavy science topics. If you like science and comedy, I highly recommend this podcast!

Mix of comedy and science
This podcast, presented by Prof Brian Cox (he of the lovely hair and "isn't everything brilliant" attitude) teams up with angry comedian Robin Ince to present this BBC Radio 4 science podcast looking at the scientific discussions of the day, with guests representing differing viewpoints. Brian's engaging, accessible descriptions of the science involved meet Robin's layman's understanding (though I think he has a better understanding of things than he lets on) and deliver a good, understandable debate on why things matter and why we should be more interested in science.
