Hello
This is the website of Adam Isaak (he/they). On it you will find a list of things I've made over the years and how to contact me.
About Me
I'm a producer, journalist, artist, and writer.
Most of my work over the last 15 years has revolved around science and technology, but I'm also deeply invested in social justice, queer issues, disability rights, interesting comedy, music, and history.
Work
I’ve worked as the following things: pizza delivery driver, janitor, retirement home dishwasher, undergrad astronomy teaching assistant, 35mm photo developer, agricultural warehouse forklift driver, think tank media producer, podcast producer, science journalist, writer, technology video producer, and comedy album producer.
Below is an incomplete list of some of my work.
Podcasts
I created and produced over 400 episodes of Inquiring Minds (2013-2024), a weekly popular science podcast. I also helped create and produced three seasons (1-3) of Cadence, a podcast about music and neuroscience.
CNBC Videos
I was a producer for CNBC in San Francisco, where I made (wrote, shot, edited, and narrated) explainer videos about science and technology.
Tested Videos
At Tested.com, I made videos with Adam Savage and others about technology, makers, and pop culture.
