Doctor Geek's Laboratory

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Doctor Geek's Laboratory is an audio show created by Dr. Scott Viguié[1][2] that operates as STEM outreach (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) and is used by some homeschooling parents as part of their science curriculum.[3] The show portrays a fictional laboratory populated by humorous characters who are trying to bring about the world of tomorrow today. Most of the episodes include a non-fiction element by interviewing scientists, corporate leaders, and others who are actively working on bleeding edge technology and trying to bring it to the consumer.[4] The first season of the show is available as a box set from Blackstone Audio.[5]
