Twenty Thousand Hertz is a wonderful podcast telling “stories behind the world’s most recognizable and interesting sounds.” Apropos of our recent announcement of Bose and RadioPublic, I was delighted to hear this episode about the founding story of Dr. Amar Bose, his scientific inquiries into sound, his entrepreneurial journey, and his ultimate “gift” to MIT and the world of audio. Check it out:

The science behind sound reproduction has been studied for centuries. But what will research uncover in the centuries to come? One man made it his life’s mission to find out, and a gift he made to the world will continue that mission for the foreseeable future. Explore the extraordinary life of Dr. Amar Bose in this special holiday episode of Twenty Thousand Hertz.
