    Ologies by Allie Ward!!

    She basically interviews scientists about their job and asks all the dumb questions you wish you could ask. She has a huge number of episodes on everything from black holes and dark matter to squirrels to Emojis. And it’s all from the perspective of “the study of”.

    One of my favorite episodes is “Ferro-equinology”. The study of iron horses. Trains. I knew trains were cool, but had no idea how cool they really were until that episode.

    Her energy is addictive too. Great personality. If you are a part of her patron (which I am) you’ll get a heads up before her interviews and she give an opportunity for you to post questions that she’ll ask the Ologist.
