A local student is bringing his passion to other people through a podcast that talks about science, popular theories and technology.

Eleven-year-old Loretto resident, Hank Coish, hosts a podcast titled “Half ‘Our’ Views,” which is available on Spotify, Amazon Music, and iHeart Radio. His full name is Henry, but he goes by Hank with friends and as a podcast host.

An admitted science enthusiast, Hank got the idea of doing a podcast after learning about the subject in his class at Adjala-Central Public School.

“My class started doing a unit on podcasts,” Hank explained. “I enjoy studying science and learning about technology. I get my inspiration for the podcasts from reading about science and technology on the internet.”

Hank speaks with friends and family during his podcasts and then uploads the episodes online. 

He started broadcasting in April 2024.

His first podcast started with an episode titled, ‘Is Life a Simulation?’

“The second episode was ‘will robots, one day, take over,’” Hank explained how he delves into the big questions that science is now looking at. “Currently, I’m working on doing something on AI and coding. Climate change is also a big topic right now.”

Each podcast is around 30 minutes long, and Hank manages to keep the conversation flowing and the questions interesting for the full half-hour.

He has done an episode on the mystery of Area 51, and what Earth would look like without humans over a period of 1,000 years.

Not all of the episodes focus on the mysteries of science. In his latest podcast, Hank and his friend Carter discussed the origins of sports, including how basketball and hockey were developed and became such popular activities.

Hank tries to keep his podcasts on topics that are currently trending so his listeners will be engaged and stay tuned for the entire broadcast.

The tagline for his show spells out his name with the first letters of each word – Hypotheses Are Now Known.

The podcasts are free to listen and you will hear some clever conversations and some good theories about science, technology, and whatever Hank thinks is relevant for future broadcasts.
