A massive shout-out to Richard Saunders for dedicating such a great chunk of the latest episode of The Skeptic Zone Podcast to us winning the Ockham Awards 2017.
Then you can listen to some of the interviews András recorded at CICAPfest in Cesena, Italy, while on the ‘About Time Tour’ with Susan Gerbic and Mark Edward.
Francesco Grassi is an expert on crop circles (actually makes them) and an author of a book on the topic, Francesco Paolo de Ceglia is a #science historian talking about the ‘blood miracle’ of Saint Januarius and of course, Massimo Polidoro (chief executive of CICAP) talks about the festival and what it might become in the future.
Please, don’t forget to check out our events calendar, on which you’ll find that Jelena and Pontus will soon be busy participating in a panel discussion at Ratio in Sofia, Bulgaria.
