Keep Up The Good Work

As a civilian working in Death Care, I’m grateful for this podcast. An important aspect of the scientific method is to poke holes in all hypotheses in order to strengthen the robustness of a conclusion. Thank you

The return of reason

Love this show for the rational, intelligent discussion of issues involving medicine. My background is in math, not medicine, so some parts can go over my head, but not too badly. I just can’t say enough about how much we need to talk about what the evidence is actually telling us, and that is exactly what this podcast does.
