Ringo Starr: Send Love, Spread Peace (Meditation Science with Bob Roth)

Sing For Science&nbsp;is a science-and-music podcast where musicians sit down with scientists to explore the scientific ideas hidden in their most iconic songs. Listen to JD from Korn talk about&nbsp;“Dead Bodies Everywhere”&nbsp;with a mortuary-science expert, Sia explore one of her breakup ballads with an attachment-theory psychologist, and many, many more. Created and hosted by New York musician Matt Whyte, the show seeks to uncover connections wherever they may exist and build bridges between seemingly disparate voices, styles, and walks of life.&nbsp;Sing For Science&nbsp;is made possible in part by a grant from the Simons Foundation.
