– with special guests Alice and Marsh

This week we have celebrity company in the form of Alice Howarth and Michael “Marsh” Marshall of Skeptics with a K fame! Before they tell all about QED in October, we chat a bit about the LHC firing up again, EU law suits against Hungary, homeopathy against the heath wave and the brand new interview with Claire Klingenberg on Skeptical Inquirer conducted by Annika. In TWISH we here about Sir Richard Owen and his role in in founding the Natural History Museum in London. Pope Frankie is going to Canada next week to make his apologies, but we suggest he bring a big bag of money as well. Then it’s time for the news:

  • INTERNATIONAL: Record child vaccinations setback, due to covid
  • INTERNATIONAL: Stronger democracies have seen fewer excess deaths
  • SWEDEN: Anti-vaxxer site publishes names of 800 covid-vaccinated children
  • GERMANY: The ‘Europol ploy’ that scammed thousands of Germans
  • UK: Tory leadership contestant supporter of homeopathy
  • SPACE: More info on space collaboration between Russia and the US

Some geniuses in Switzerland have started a campaign called “Safe Blood” for people that want access to “unvaccinated blood”, and for that they are Really Wrong.

Enjoy!
