Radiolab explores the role of chance and sheer randomness in all our lives.

Radiolab explores stochasticity - the role of chance and sheer randomness in all our lives. With Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich.

Radiolab's Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich explore stochasticity, a word which means randomness, and the role it plays in our lives.

From a woman suddenly consumed by a gambling addiction, to a meeting which seems to defy pure chance, and some very noisy bacteria, they consider chance and patterns in sport, lotteries, and the cells in our own body.

Radiolab is an award winning show about curiosity, where sound illuminates ideas, and the boundaries blur between science, philosophy and the human experience. 

First broadcast on public radio in the USA in 2009.
