The NYT list of best podcasts of 2022 includes a life sciences one that I was not aware of:

"‘Unexplainable’

Where did the moon come from? What sounds did dinosaurs make? Does anyone know how smell receptors actually work? In this weekly science series, Noam Hassenfeld, Brian Resnick, Meradith Hoddinott and the explainers at Vox devote their attention to the basic facts of life we don’t understand, which, as anyone who’s spent time with a five-year-old knows, is a longer list than you might think. Always artfully scored and produced — especially in mini-series about human senses and the solar system — “Unexplainable” never feels like homework. At a time when many people see profit in false or oversimplified claims about reality, it’s refreshing to be reminded of what the search for truth really sounds like. (Listen to “Unexplainable” from the Vox Media Podcast Network.)"
