Some history on citrus breeding, and how it's done today. Kinda blew my mind: http://www.talkingbiotechpodcast.com/036-citrus-domestication-breeding-challenges/
Separate podcasts with all sorts of interviews with breeders who work on one sort of crop or another - coffee, oranges, blueberries, haskap berries, corn, etc. Breeders from different countries. Pioneers in genetic engineering. A guy who works on improving photosynthesis, which has huge implications, including the possibility of mitigating climate change.

Nature podcast is weekly and provides some science news coverage. They also release a monthly show into the same feed (Backchat) that is mostly science news.

We had a fun interview with Josh Richards of the MarsOne Expedition you might enjoy. Josh Richards Interview
Otherwise I am not too familiar with many that are weekly. Maybe the Skeptic's Guide to the Universe would be a good fit.
