Episode 72: Interview with Dr Lambourne
Following our previous episode, Dr Lambourne agreed to speak with us and discuss the fertility crisis, migration, and our thoughts on his book.
Honestly, this went much more civilly than I think either of us expected.
Make sure you listen to the previous episode to understand why we're talking about porn, population health and how stimulating Henry Cavill is.

Episode 71: Fertility crisis and the mystery of Dr Lambourne

Some strange science news in this episode, including discussion of how to avoid being lied to with science.
If you have any information about Dr Lambourne or Broad Horizons publishing, or were approached like we were, please contact us via email or Twitter (http://www.twitter.com/eurekanerdcast)
