Rewind Ep. 17 – Celebrity Science | SciShow Tangents Podcast

Original airdate: March 5, 2019

For our very first live show at PodCon 2, we were joined by Elah Feder, the co-host and producer of the podcast Undiscovered! Podcasting on a stage with a live audience meant we really had to bring our A-game, so we swapped stories of famous actors, politicians, and other celebrities who also dabbled in science.
