Could there be life-forms on worlds far beyond the bounds of Earth?

 

The search for life as we don’t know it begins with understanding life as we do.

 

From amoebas to androids to antimatter, Are We Alone? weaves together humor and compelling interviews into themed programs about the biggest ideas in evolutionary biology, genetics, paleontology, technology, and physics – as well as cosmology and astronomy.

 

Are you a doubting Thomas? You’ll have plenty of company as we separate science from pseudoscience and the facts from the phony in Skeptic Check, our monthly look at critical thinking.

 

Are We Alone? is a one-hour program, produced by the SETI Institute and broadcast and podcast every week. The show can be found on iTunes, Juice, and other podcast sites. Radio stations carrying the program are listed on our Listening page.

 

The show is freely available to radio stations for broadcast from the Public Radio Satellite System (PRSS) Content Depot, the Public Radio Exchange (PRX) and Pacifica Network.

 

If you are a station that would like to broadcast Are We Alone?, or would like more information about the program, email us at arewealone@seti.org, or call Barbara Vance at 650-960-4531.

 

Are We Alone? is supported in part by a grant from the NASA Astrobiology Institute. Skeptic Check is presented by a generous donation from the Trimberger Family Foundation. Some music provided by Peter Kienle.

 

Science radio for thinking species on any world.
