Some cancers can be detected based on the fungi that grow within tumors, researchers say. Could this discovery lead to a life-saving screening technique? ACSH debated a pair of "fat  acceptance" advocates on Dr. Phil. Let's break down the discussion.

Join our directors of bio-sciences and chemistry, Cameron English and  Dr. Josh Bloom, as they break down these stories on episode 24 of the Science Dispatch podcast.

An Israeli group has discovered that some cancers can be identified  by blood tests that identify the DNA of different fungi that grow within  different tumors. Could this be a breakthrough in cancer screening? Or  maybe more? A strange but fascinating theory.

Cameron English recently appeared on "Dr. Phil" to discuss the  fat-acceptance movement—a dangerous, misnamed "social justice" cause  that needs to die an abrupt death. Let's break down the debate that  ensued.
