From their mission statement: "Radiolab believes your ears are a portal to another world. Where sound illuminates ideas, and the boundaries blur between science, philosophy, and human experience. Big questions are investigated, tinkered with, and encouraged to grow. Bring your curiosity, and we'll feed it with possibility."
A little pretentious but a very apt description, and I guess it's not pretentious if you do it. Radio Lab is a science radio show that explores a theme each episode (death, for example, or laughter). You'd be hard-pressed to find a boring episode. This is their show on sleep in three parts.
One Eye Open: Night Terrors and Animal Sleep Patterns
Sleep Deprivation
Dreams
Is it a good test review? Eh. If you don't know the material, this won't help you pass. If you do, think of this as elaborative rehearsal. And it's really, really, really interesting.
I always have trouble with their audio players so here's the website if they won't work. http://www.wnyc.org/shows/radiolab/episodes/2007/05/25
