Podcasting about science may be popular, but does it motivate engagement? The Human Biology Association and American Journal of Human Biology ( AJHB ) cosponsor a podcast that highlights recent articles. We hypothesized that AJHB articles discussed on the podcast ( n = 42) receive more online views than other articles from the same issues. We used Student's t ‐tests to compare mean article views and found podcasted articles received more views, but the difference was not significant. When extreme outliers were removed, podcasted articles had over twice the views of control articles ( p = .04), indicating that journal‐affiliated podcasting can increase science engagement
