This month's podcast features an interview with the brilliant comedian Robin Ince who talks about science in comedy, his fascination with the world around us, microbiology and mimophants. We were lucky enough to grab a few minutes with him just before one of his 'Uncaged Monkeys' shows in Manchester at the end of last year.

The Society for Applied Microbiology provide benefits and resources online to raise awareness and knowledge of a diverse range of applied microbiology issues such as climate change and biofuels, food poisoning outbreaks and hospital acquired infection. The Micropod podcast, is an interesting podcast featuring interesting people. Some are microbiologists, some aren't scientists, but they all have one thing in common: everything they talk to us about is relevant to the lives of microbiologists across the globe.
