Mary Roach in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky, recorded May 2, 2013 while she was on tour for Gulp: Adventures in the Alimentary Canal. Mary Roach brings a sharp eye and excellent research skills to explain how things work, how they don’t work, and the various things that happen in between. She is the author of eight books devoted to popular science, told in an often humorous vein. She’s been interviewed five times for this program, f the most recent Replaceable You, Adventures in Human Anatomy, which was recorded September 15, 2026 and will be posted shortly. In this book, Mary Roach investigates the science of eating, saliva, stomach mechanics, and elimination, tackling “taboo” questions about how the body processes food. This complete edited interview is posted as a podcast for the first time. The post Mary Roach: America’s Funniest Science Writer, “Gulp,” 2013 appeared first on KPFA.
