Nerd Hurdles — the podcast that helps you overcome your geek prejudices... with snark 

Nerd Hurdle - nerd hur'dle - (nûrd hûr'dl) n., v. -dled, -dling -n. a barrier or blockade of 'nerdiness' that an individual not of the nerd persuasion must metaphorically 'leap' over in order to enjoy or fully appreciate a given experience or situation.

Each week one of geekdom's sacred cows is put on the chopping block as Jakob and Mandi dissect it with an irreverent and ruthlessly critical eye. Occasionally the cow makes it out unscathed, but even when when the blood of your favourite movie, TV show, book, comic, game, character or pastime is spilled, there's something to laugh about (as they twist the knife).

Put your headphones on; get outside and look up at some of the best bits of the night sky with help from Stargazing LIVE’s Mark Thompson and astronomers from across the country.

Weekly science conversation, on everything from archaeology to zoology, from abacus to the antipodean rodent zyzomys, by way of meteorites. Presented by Quentin Cooper, and airing every Thursday, 4:30 pm on BBC Radio 4.
