We live in a country where so many people are exposed to false non- scientific information. We need to get back to using science FACTS to make wise decisions for our lives and the country we live in. This show does a great job of presenting facts and evidence in an entertaining format. Well done you! Hope more and more people start listening to programs like yours!
Some science. Cloaked in a liberal agenda it seems like a times. Seriously thinking of unsubscribing.
So, I guess mixing up science in the muddy, highly subjective waters of politics qualifies as science now? This podcast has done what appears to be some truly worthy content, but when you play in the profoundly distorted world of politics, it calls all your “science” episodes into question.
Great pod but the constant gambling ads really cheapen the whole thing
