…BTW, there was not a single monkey at the Scopes Monkey trial
Brian Eggo is back to save the day once again! as András and Annika couldn’t make it. But we hope that just like them and us, you will all make it to QED in Manchester on 23-24 of September. We will certainly be there! Tickets are now out and they’re selling like, well, QED-tickets after a pandemic. Get yours now!

In TWISH we hear about the arrest of John Scopes of the Scopes Monkey trial fame. (No monkeys were hurt in the making of this episode). Then, it’s time for the news:

  • GERMANY: Homeopathy company Heel reported to authorities for false advertising of product
  • UK: On the power of objects, as the country is preparing for the coronation of The Alternative Prince
  • INTERNATIONAL: WHO pseudoscience
  • INTERNATIONAL: How medical decisions are really made?

The Charité school in Berlin gets this weeks prize for being Really Wrong as they for no apparent reason pay for a professorship in anthroposophy.

Enjoy!
