Geologic Podcast

I'm amazed that no one has mentioned George Hrab's "Geologic Podcast". It's mostly entertainment, but his "Ask George" segment is very informative.

It's a tough one to categorize. He certainly follows a skeptical mindset. Ask George, Religious Moron of the Week, Interesting Fauna (early episodes), the science bit (early episodes and segment name escapes me), and (H)Rabbi Minutiae Interroberg are the segments that could be considered "regularly skeptical." But IMHO, skepticism is not the focus of the podcast. I'd consider it a "really interesting guy with a science and skepticism fetish" podcast. And lots of other fetishes he sometimes shares.

I learned about it here, so it's been mentioned before. It's awesome. Spread the word.
