Podcast

Welcome to Void Deck, a casual science podcast produced by Science Centre Singapore. Inspired by cosmic voids and HDB community spaces, we get you curious about big ideas in everyday life. Each episode, we bring science out of the labs and into your neighbourhood. We sit down with a local science changemaker and ask all the questions you’re too paiseh to ask. Is the fish in the wet market my distant cousin? Will robots eventually take over the world? Listen to down-to-earth conversations with Singapore experts on everything from space, nature, tech, health, and culture. Tune in and explore the universe from the heartlands! Subscribe to Void Deck on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.
