The Springer Nature Storytellers 2016 Playlist

After a brief hiatus earlier this year, Springer Nature Storytellers certainly made up for lost time with some incredible new podcasts and three highly attended live shows (podcasts to come 2017)! In case you missed any of the stories we released, here’s a complete playlist of every episode shared in 2016. As always, we highly recommend browsing our complete library for some other fascinating science stories.

 

 

Having just returned from the Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union, we’re still buzzing with excitement over the earth and space science stories shared. Stay tuned early next year for these as well as surgery and criminology stories to kick off Springer Nature Storytellers in 2017! Happy listening!
