In this week's episode Mike and Kevin look at two case studies at the confluence of science and policy; one wherein policymakers could have used some scientific guidance, and another wherein scientists could have used some political oversight.  The boys take a deeper look into the interplay of research ethics and separating fact from fantasy in this scathing critique.
