My name is Angelica Pasquini

Bey::

And I'm The Bul Bey, but you can just call me Bey!

Angelica::

Bey, why is our podcast such an iconic podcast?

Bey::

Well you know, as a life-long Philadelphian I understand the importance of The Franklin Institute. It's a staple in the Philadelphia community, it’s a part of the cultural tapestry really, you kind of pass through it as you become an adult Philadelphian.

Angelica::

And I’m really excited that we get to talk to really smart people, because to be honest with you, look to your left, look to your right honey. Are they, where are they? In this podcast it’s the new iteration of what The Franklin Institute has to offer. In the spirit of The Franklin Institute we are going to be celebrating science through our own curiosities via interviews with leading scientists and researchers

Bey::

Alright Ang, what can a listener expect from this podcast?

Angelica::

A lot. We talk about brain magnets with a neurologist. We talk about bioprinting, human organs. We talk about whether cognitive enhancements like Adderall or Ritalin are fair with the doctor who wrote the book on it, literally. So stay tuned for this, and more. Episodes are out every Monday.
