The European Skeptics Podcast - The ESP

TheESP – Ep. #440 – It’s a spectrum, stupid!


Listen Later

We start with a follow-up on the UK riots and the disinformation that triggered them. Regardless of this we look forward to going to QED where the Ockham Awards will be announced. The nominations are now open! See link in the show notes.

In TWISH we hear about how it wasn’t that long ago that Joseph Lister performed the first antiseptic surgery – we sure are lucky that we we were not born back then. Then it is time for the news:

  • RUSSIA: Russian textbook claims that Trump lost in 2020 due to election fraud
  • INTERNATIONAL: Pseudoscientific answers to a medical and environmental mishap at the 2024 Summer Olympic Games
  • EUROPE: Heat Caused Over 47,000 Deaths in Europe in 2023 – but it could have been much worse
  • INTERNATIONAL: Alleged transgender issue stirs up controversy at the Olympics
  • INTERNATIONAL: Chemtrails or not, aviation contrails contribute to the climate crises

Enjoy!
