– plus, the Princess who will never be Queen – and why that’s a good thing

Should we all abandon Twitter and move to Mastodon? Call us contrarians, but we’ll wait and see! Preparing for our Australian trip to Skepticon we may need an umbrella or two due to the severe weather, but if you are based in Europe and like to go to a great conference, why not head down to Leiria in Portugal for ComceptCon 2022 that opens this weekend! In TWISH we hear about another great Hungarian skeptic, Mihály Beck, born this week in 1929. Pope Frankie is worried about those porn watching nuns, while we just move on to take a look at the news:

  • INTERNATIONAL: How screwed are we – any results from COP27?
  • GERMANY: The Golden Aluminium Hat awards ceremony now online
  • NORWAY: The Shaman’s Princess leaves all her royal commitments
  • LISTENBURG: How a fictive country was born and became viral
  • SWITZERLAND: Nathalie wasn’t a victim of ritual satanic abuse
  • SWEDEN: Pontus Pokes the Politicians: Environment budget a disaster

The Russian TV host Andrei Norkin shows how to protest without saying anything and for that he is Really Right.

Enjoy!

0:45:52 QUOTE AND FAREWELL

    Just sit there and just churn out those words and just send those words off everywhere all over the place and try and get into all the media, even media that overwhelmingly puts forward lies like ‘the Earth is flat’ or ‘that tobacco is good for you’ or ‘that climate change is not real’, because at least you’re getting to a new audience.

    So just keep on churning out that material, just doing it over and over and over again. You get good by doing it and you make mistakes.

    And ignore opinions, stick to the facts.“
     
    Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki, (born 1948), Australian science communicator and populariser, known as an author and a science commentator on Australian radio and television. /
