    Episode 4: French Fries And Flavonoids

    Welcome to episode 4 of Fake Science! This week instead of being joined by a guest, I decided to take you step by step through some examples of fake science I've seen this week. Join me as I explain why french fries don't cure baldness, and red wine might not do anything you think it does (except get you drunk. It definitely does that.)

    Episode 2: Fake Science and Climate Change

    Welcome to episode 2 of Fake Science! Today I'm joined by climate scientist Professor James Renwick to talk about take climate science. For those wanting more information about the topics we touched on, feel free to get in touch with any questions (or who knows, maybe you have some corrections!)
