Privacy

You don’t need an account to browse or listen. The site sets no cookies and runs no analytics or advertising scripts. Your browser may remember your playback speed using local storage.

Episode information comes from the show’s public feed on Spotify for Creators, fetched and cached by Cloudflare, which hosts this site. Audio streams from the podcast host when you press play. Cloudflare may keep technical request logs for security.

Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube and the journals that publish the papers are separate services with their own privacy policies. The paper suggestion form opens your own email app; nothing is stored on this site.

Accessibility

The site is built for keyboard navigation, visible focus, readable contrast and screen readers, and it respects reduced-motion settings. Every episode page works without JavaScript, using your browser’s own audio controls. Transcripts are linked when the feed includes one.
