About Us

REALscience is an online media company focused on bringing science content to consumers any way and anywhere they want. Based in Seattle and surrounded by research institutions, biotech companies and science geniuses throughout the western United States, REALscience brings science to life.

Your host Michael Bradbury guides the discussion while contributing writers and producers find the best and brightest in the region to bring you fast-paced, fun and insightful information.

The Task at Hand:
With an emphasis on in-depth coverage of all things scientific, REALscience is a local podcast with a national edge. Seattle is one of the nation’s foremost scientific communities and has the second largest publicly funded institution—the University of Washington. In addition, the lively biotechnology industry is attracting scientists to the Pacific Northwest at an unprecedented rate. This convergence calls for a broader look. Newspapers are unable to peek behind the headlines because of space. TV news barely scratches the surface. Local public radio occasionally covers science, but is generally hamstrung by budgets.

REALscience fills in many of the local coverage gaps while attracting a broad audience interested in learning how science has an impact on daily life. By tracking cutting edge discoveries, complicated controversies and important information that all consumers should know, REALscience demystifies the world for a general audience.

REALscience gives people a primer in basic science while making the biology, geology, meterology, astronomy and zoology come to life. It takes routine classroom science and gives it a pop culture face. REALscience brings science to life.

CEO Michael Bradbury has a genuine interest in science. With ten years in the media business, he wants to improve science literacy and showcase the amazing research being conducted all around us.
