Wikireadia: The Podcast that reads Wikipedia.

Wikipedia is awesome. What’s not awesome is reading Wikipedia when you’re walking, driving, trying to get to sleep or sheltering in place. That’s what Wikireadia is here for — Wikireadia is the podcast wherein we pick the most interesting Wikipedia entries and then we read them to you. No commentary or analysis, just the entry itself and the smooth voice of your host Eric Goeres. From cultural phenomenons to scientific principles, architects to movie stars and sunken ships to space rockets, if it’s interesting and it’s on Wikipedia, we’re gonna read it.
