The Pseudo Scientists – Episode 56
Subscribe: iTunes / Libsyn RSS
In this episode of The Pseudo Scientists, the official podcast of the Young Australian Skeptics, Belinda, Tom, Rachael and I wonder about the feasibility of DNA-based information storage, look at a new breakthrough in the development of a male reproductive pill and touch on an update to the Kinesio Tape story from Episode 51. Plus, Ted interviews James Randi, living skeptical legend, magician and founder of the James Randi Educational Foundation.
(Note: The current President of the JREF is DJ Grothe, not James Randi as we say multiple times throughout the episode. We apologise unreservedly to the distress we may have caused DJ and his family, and are willing to pay any damages incurred.)
You can find out more about the James Randi Educational Foundation at their website.
This week’s “Houston, We Have A Problem” clip is part of US politician Todd Akin’s interesting comments about biological defence against rape on the Jaco Report.
