Laura Bartonâs Notes on Music (Radio 4) | BBC Sounds

Laura Bartonâs One True Love, it was about Bruce Springsteen. Or âBroohssâ, as Barton had it, in her beautiful, intimate speaking voice. The way she said it, it sounded like a kiss.
Barton loves Springsteen. I do not, but her programme made me think I might: thatâs the joy of how Barton writes and talks about music. Sheâs full of the romance of pop and rockânâroll, their potent promise; the way a voice or a song â or just a cadence â can seem to understand you, send you on a journey, solve your lifeâs problems. And in her short series sheâs unpicked three elements of her personal pop romance.

Here is a selection of four podcasts to listen to in observance of this year's International Day of Women and Girls in Science.
We often imagine scientists as being cartoonish, eccentric figures with wild hair playing with tubes in a lab. People who are not like us.
