As I am currently finishing work at dusk I have discovered Material World on Radio 4. It is not too heavy on the science, but gives a good oversight and explanation of the subjects in question.

[...] reports on developments across the sciences. Each week scientists describe their work, conveying the excitement they feel for their research projects.

Previous episodes after May ’05 are are available but are only on streaming and not as mp3 downloads1. Hopefully the BBC’s experiment with podcasting will mean I can subscribe to the show in the near future when I am back at the office.

1 You can of course record the stream with programs such as AudioHijackPro, but only in real time (with the occasional drop-out).
