Science Monkey

Professor Raywat Deonandan & Professor Graham Sanders

Science Monkey is hosted by Dr Raywat Deonandan and Dr Graham Sanders. Yes, we are actually doctors. But we're not the kind of doctors who can get you drugs. Well, maybe we can get you drugs, but not in any legal way. We're the poor kind of doctors who get preferential seating on airplanes until there's an actual medical emergency, at which point everyone hates us, because we can't actually do anything.

    Episode 20 – Protect Your Anus Ball (Lost episode #1 from 2017)

    Yes, we’re back! Sort of. The first of two “lost” episodes, this session was recorded on Oct 13, 2017. Graham and Raywat ask, is the world really overpopulated? How do we measure that? What’s this thing called the Demographic Transition? We run through our regular science trivia segment, which is where Graham schools us about…More

    Episode 19 – A Pox Upon Both Your Monkey Houses

    After more than two years of podcasting silence, Science Monkey returns with a discussion of…. Monkeypox! Graham and Ray run down what we know of this disease, whether it really is a public health threat, and whether the poor monkeys really are to blame. Also: how much sex do men think women have on a…More

    Episode 18 – It’s Easy Being Good-Looking From Two Metres Away

    As the COVID-19 pandemic rages on, Science Monkey is once more brought to you from a distance, with Graham and Raywat recording from the comforts of their own homes. This is also our second ever video episode, which you can watch on YouTube. Or you can listen to audio version right here. In this episode,…More Science Monkey episode 18

    Episode 17 – Ma-Ma-Ma-My Corona

    Science Monkey is back with a very special episode, from deep within the doldrums of pandemic quarantine. This is also our very first video podcast, which you can watch on YouTube. The audio was rendered from that Zoom video call so it is, shall we say, less than ideal. In the episode, we answer several…More Science Monkey episode 17

    Episode 16 – A Reasonable Number of Vaginas

    Science Monkey is back! We took a lengthy sabbatical to mourn the passing of our mascot, Ouie the magical wonderdog, whose pawsteps are audible in this particular episode, which of course was recorded before his passing. On today’s show, we are joined by the erudite Dr Aparna Halpé for a session of The Facts and…More Science Monkey episode 16

    Episode 15 – Is Fluoride Safe?

    The government puts fluoride in our drinking water. What is the evidence that this is safe? We examine two studies that purport to show a connection between fluoride in our water and both thyroid disease and lower IQ. We also learn a little about so-called “ecological” studies, some stuff about statistics, and whose name is…More Science Monkey episode 15

    Episode 14 – Is Being Overweight Healthy? Fat Chance.

    We go back to our roots and actually talk about the rigors (or lack thereof) of a scientific study. A famous JAMA paper suggested that slightly overweight people are healthier than “normal weight” people. Is that study rigorous…. or just ridiculous? We also learn where not to get stung by a bee, and why you…More Science Monkey episode 14

    Episode 13 – Two Facts, Too Furious(ly)

    Recorded outside (hence the sound of passing airplanes) and with Graham annoyingly smacking the microphone (he’s learning, people, he’s learning), today’s episode features our second session of rapid-fire facts, and just the facts (ma’am). You’ll never believe what Alfred Kinsey put into his urethra, or what gas Henry Ford kept in a vial, or which…More Science Monkey episode 13
