In Plain English: Approachable, Open-Source, Jargon-Free Science

In Plain English is a podcast that promotes science literacy by making research approachable, open-source, and jargon-free. Every episode features an expert who presents a paper in their field of research, and two layperson guests who ask the kinds of questions anyone would ask when learning about this research for the first time.
