The Storyology Podcast investigates what happens when science meets story. Hosted by materials scientist and storyteller Dr Anna Ploszajski, each episode tracks the effects, risks, limitations and opportunities of communicating science with story. The podcast gathers evidence from experts along the way, as we track the presence of story along the whole pipeline of how science gets communicated; from funding to publication to the media and the general public. If you want to understand how two of the strongest forces in society affect our everyday lives - from GP appointments to justice - this is the podcast for you.

In this first episode, materials scientist and storyteller Dr Anna Ploszajski speaks to two experts who have spent their illustrious careers at the intersection of science and storytelling.
- Baroness Alex Freeman made documentaries mostly for the BBC, and then went to Cambridge where she studied evidence communication, where she got interested in the downsides of using storytelling in science
- Professor Marcus Munafò is a university Professor in Psychology in health behaviours, and Associate Pro-Vice Chancellor for Research Culture at the University of Bristol.
