Music and the Brain
This podcast wrapped up, but the back catalogue holds up well.
No new episodes are coming out. The existing ones are still worth a listen.

The neuroscience of music explored with genuine scientific rigor and the sense of wonder that the topic deserves. How does music physically change your brain? Why do certain melodies trigger specific emotions? How is music being used therapeutically? The intersection of hard neuroscience and something as deeply emotional as music produces episodes that are simultaneously intellectual and moving. You'll understand your own response to music better after listening. Good for musicians, neuroscience nerds, or anyone who's ever been curious about why a song can make you cry.
