I'd like to think the podcast Radiolab has done more for generating interest in science then any other project I can think of.

sorry to break your perception (or not), but even as a space exploration enthusiast, never heard of that. but then again, podcasts generally are on outer rim of interest of general population

Sorry but I think NASA has done a LOT more for generating interest in science than any other project.

It's cool to hear that people are podcasting about it. I'm glad you were able to plug them on HN.

Are there any good space or physical science focused episodes? Whenever I check in on Radiolab it seems like it is all about pop-psychology topics or TED-ish "turns out this counter-intuitive notion is true" stories.

Maybe you can change that for the remake of Cosmos.
