The Official Sciblogs Podcast - Episode 10 - 2/4
Channel: SciblogsPodcast
Date: 2011-11-17

Elf's back safe and sound (yay!), and we decided after a strategy confab to try out something a bit new with the podcast.  If you're curious about what we changed, we explain the why and how in the first few minutes :) To paraphrase, though -- we'll be discussing fewer items at greater length (with added interviews!), and trying to add our knowledge and insight a bit more.  We hope this'll be of more interest and use to our listeners!

Also, this was something of a special edition -- given that the New Zealand general election is at the end of November, we thought we would go through some of the science-related policies (or comments thereon) of the three major NZ political parties, as well as one other.

The comments were collected by the New Zealand Science Media Centre, and Elf and aimee go through some of the issues covered, comment , and also share some of the wonderful blog posts written by Sciblogs bloggers on the subject. They also discuss the plans for the reform of IRL into Advanced Technology New Zealand.
