Rachel Feltman, Science Quickly Host As the host of Science Quickly​, Scientific American's fast-paced and engaging podcast, Rachel Feltman transforms complex scientific topics into compelling stories. "I've always loved science and figured I'd become a scientist," she shares. "But around my junior year of college, I realized I didn't want to specialize in one field—I wanted to keep learning about different things all the time." That passion led her to a career spanning Popular Science, The Washington Post, The Weirdest Thing I Learned This Week, (which she still hosts) and now Scientific American, where she creates and hosts Science Quickly.    With a background in science journalism and a passion for making information accessible, she brings curiosity and clarity to every episode—whether breaking down the latest discoveries, interviewing top experts, or uncovering fascinating science stories you never knew you needed.   Each episode is designed to cut through media overload and make science fun. "We synthesize all that news so you can stay informed without the burnout," Rachel explains. "Plus, we include lots of fun stories to keep your curiosity engaged." From quick news roundups on Mondays to deeper interviews on Wednesdays and narrative-driven "Friday Fascinations," there's something for every science lover.    Rachel and the Scientific American team are always innovating, with exciting projects on the horizon: "We've been doing more on-site reporting for video podcasts, and I can't wait for our readers and listeners to see them! (Stay tuned for footage of me in a full clean-room bunny suit.)"   "Science is everywhere, and knowledge is power," says Science Quickly host Rachel Feltman—and that's what Scientific American's podcasts are all about.  Subscribing to Scientific American helps make Rachel's work possible.   Get 90 days of digital access for $1 Subscibe Listen to Science Quickly Invasive Plants Are Not the Enemy Botanist Mason Heberling challenges how we think about invasive species and our role in their spread.
