The Jodcast is an student-led astronomy podcast based at the Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics. With our first episode airing in 2006, we are one of the longest running astronomy podcasts in the UK. We aim to share cutting-edge astrophysics research with the wider public, and challenge the stereotypes of who can be an astronomer. In our episodes, you can listen to interviews with researchers about their work, hear the latest space news and get your astronomy questions answered. Over the years we have featured interviews with Professor Brian Cox, Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell, Buzz Aldrin and Rosemary Coogan just to name a few! So, if you want to get a peak behind the curtain (or massive 76 metre dish!) and find out what's happening in astronomy - The Jodcast is the podcast for you!
