The Inoculated Mind Mindcast is encoded as mp3 audio files, and there are many ways to listen. You can listen to the show on the website, download it to your computer, or subscribe to it as a podcast. We are also working on other ways for you to get your weekly inoculation of science.
Listen at InoculatedMedia.com
Each episode of the Mindcast is uploaded to InoculatedMedia.com, along with a list of topics and guests on each episode. Each episode page gives you several options to listen. You may click on the play button in the built-in player, but if you navigate away from the page the playback will stop.
Instead, by selecting “Play in a New Window,” a small window will pop up with its own player. (Popups must be enabled for this site for this to work.) As long as you leave this player window open, you can point your browser to anywhere you want on or off the site and it will continue playing.
Third, you may click on the download link to save the mp3 file of the episode to your computer to listen later, transfer to your portable mp3 player, or burn on a CD. There are many programs that can play mp3s, but we recommend Winamp.

Everyone else can also listen to the show streamed live on the web with your choice of media players:
WSUM Live: 128kbps

If you would like to suggest a radio station in your community that might be interested in a (free!) science radio show, please introduce us to the station and you could help Inoculate more people around the country! (Or the world..?)
Listen inside your Brain
While the possibility of having your mind inoculated with science directly through implants or wirelessly with a remote control would be amazing, this option is currently unavailable. The technology is still under development, and volunteer test subjects have either turned into piles of goo, or supervillains.
If you believe you are hearing the show inside your head and it is not playing anywhere near you – you have been listening too much. Go outside, relax, and come back later. The Mindcast will still be here!
