- Radiolab is not a science show in the same way This American Life is not public affairs programing. Just look at their mission statement on their About page. Listen to their earliest episodes, they're more ontological inquiries than straight reports on the latest scientific research, more an ethnography on science, or if you will a poetics of science. I agree that some of the theories posited have been specious sometimes outlandish (like that one about the walking rate in cities), but science begins with speculation and truth is as much about the negotiations (ethical, logical, emotional) as the cold hard facts.
