Breaking my long-standing policy of aggressive Twitter silence to share that I'm working on this, and it's going to be SO GOOD

[Bilawal Sidhu @bilawalsidhu]

Today was a BIG day! I'm stoked to share I'm the host of a new podcast called The TED AI Show.

I also had the chance to co-host a "mind expanding" session on the TED2024 stage with the one and only @TEDchris featuring the likes of @vkhosla, @drfeifei, @ashtom, @hlntnr and more.

I was interviewed for this great podcast on Elizebeth Smith Friedman. Thanks @ElahFeder for the great conversation! @jfagone @ab_greenfield @MelissasLibrary

Hi! I produced this season with the very wonderful @NoraMathison @ElahFeder and the rest of the @LostWomenofSci team. We've been out for a hot minute now, but catch up with eps 1-4 before our 5th and final episode drops next week.

[Elah Feder @ElahFeder]

@emily_dufton @LostWomenofSci You're in episode 4 too :)

[Elah Feder @ElahFeder]

@ariellatova It makes most sense if you start from episode 1, but episode 2 is where it really picks up

[Elah Feder @ElahFeder]

@ariellatova bawww thank you!!!

[Elah Feder @ElahFeder]

@julierehmeyer Julie! You are one reason to go on Twitter

[Elah Feder @ElahFeder]

I'm sorry for tweeting again! Tweeting once a year for self-promotion is the probably second-most loathsome kind of tweeting, but I'm genuinely proud of this series, and I think everyone should hear the story of Marie Nyswander!

[Scientific American @sciam]

In the early 1960s, trailblazing physician Marie Nyswander teamed up with doctors at the Rockefeller Institute to treat addiction—with drugs.

Listen to the third episode of 🎧 “The Doctor & the Fix” from @LostWomenofSci and @prx at 🔗 https://t.co/bUsQyTHVma

[Elah Feder @ElahFeder]

It is here! First episode - an adventurous young doctor from a family of liberal academics gets posted to a prison-hospital in rural Kentucky, and starts rethinking her life's purpose

[Scientific American @sciam]

Season 5 of the Lost Women of Science is live!

The first episode of "The Doctor and the Fix" is now available wherever you get your podcasts.

I internally vowed to never tweet again over a year ago, but that caused one or two people to think I was dead. So a quick update: I'm here, and things are good, and I've been working on this amazing story about a psychiatrist named Marie Nyswander!

[Lost Women of Science @LostWomenofSci]

Here’s the trailer for Season 5, The Doctor and the Fix: How Marie Nyswander changed the landscape of addiction. This time, we bring you her story and the radical treatment that would upend the landscape of addiction for decades to come. 

Join us March 30th!

@ingrid_rocket @MicrobiomeData Amazing news, amazing mural. Amazed!

[Elah Feder @ElahFeder]

Sad, but true. Science Diction is no longer. It was some of the greatest fun I ever had working on a podcast, or on anything really! Thank you to @yohannamayer and @dpeterschmidt and the many incredible freelancers for the good times

[Ben Zimmer @bgzimmer]

Sad to hear that @scifri's "Science Diction" podcast series is ending. The show's explorations of words and the science stories behind them were consistently entertaining. Kudos to @yohannamayer @ElahFeder et al. for the great work. https://t.co/9MLmPs8dtZ

“Waste land” from @planetmoney is excellent reporting about plastic recycling.

The plastics industry has known for decades that recycling plastic is not going to happen.

Their secret weapon was to give false hope to consumers via the little recycling arrows and the numbers:

[The Allusionist @AllusionistShow]

Ladybird Ladybug was about the surprising names and special qualities of the insects that are not ladies, birds or bugs, featuring @Dr_Ladybird and in collaboration with @ElahFeder & @yohannameyer; find the companion episode on the Science Diction podfeed https://t.co/vet5cyZTmA

@RMBouton Now 5 more!!

I'll probably never tire of evangelizing about the linguistics of vocal fry! I had a great time talking with @scifri's Science Diction podcast about the history & focus of creaky voice research (plus reminiscing about the very reason I joined Twitter). https://t.co/SXBu060QSp

[Elah Feder @ElahFeder]

This episode was *such* a satisfying itch to scratch.

Was also a major joy working with @mclean_ka on this one

[Ujaan @ujaanghosh]

I did a podcast with Science Diction on the origin of the word "Juggernaut." Listen to find out how political and historical forces can imbue words with strange meanings. Do listen.

I had no idea the history of air conditioning, its role as one of humankinds' most transformative technologies — and its future importance/cost as the planet warms would be so fascinating. Surprising and fun listen by @ShahlaFarzan and @scifri https://t.co/XvTf186JHj
