The Brads return from a summer hiatus and bring you some meaty stories on the flu, an Ebola update, the history of the Nobel prize,

the newest danger of space travel and the facts behind selfie deaths.

The very first TBFY In Conversation featuring Jay Ingram, a science journalist and broadcaster who has done TV, radio, written books, live shows

and on and on. Jay and Brad (aka Flash) discuss communicating science in these weird political times, the Beakerhead science fesitival, Alzheimer's and aging, and Bigfoot.

Featuring music from Freak Motif's new release Hot Plate.

Alright, alright we are finally back and Brad aka Flash is here to give you a

quick update. Get ready for new episodes and new types of episodes and Flash breaks down

the philosophy behind the show and the new content. Plus get a first glimpse of the new Freak Motif album!!

OMG!! They're back again and so is Ebola. The Brads bring back the Ebola update and then venture to the intersection of history, science and culture as they discuss some recent and not so recent examples of good science produced by bad people.

They also discuss the recent story about memory transfer in snails, a nice little story about mapping cancer genes, finally a cure for the common cold and out of a

very Brad rant comes the birth of a new segment!

After apologising for their absence the Brads jump into the apology/correction for Mad Mike Hughes and his homemade rocket followed by some brief comments on the passing of Dr.Hawking. The meat of the show however breaks down a motor neuron disease

breakthrough, the relationship between gut bacteria and mood and finally an actual study about "gaydar"

Well, to all the haters, here they are at episode 25. It hasn't been easy though and a Brad was almost lost along the way. He pulled through to be here though, along with co-host Brad, to bring you updates on a new cancer vaccine, the treacherous

amino acid, found in asparagus, that aids cancer spread and to discuss how too much sibling bullying can lead to psychotic disorders.

Or, was it not enough bullying, that leads to psychotic disorders? Listen and find out.

So many deep, deep, discussions in this episode, and not so deep ones as well. Should we allow the military to be driving the neuroscience field? How does wealth influence our dating preferences? Have no fear though, the Brads are skeptical of those results. Plus, genetic pain killers, weed, weed, weed and the pending maple syrup shortage!!!

Let the Brads welcome you back to the first show of 2018 with...excuses, not very good ones either, for their prolonged absence. With that out of the way they recap the predictions made last year and find out they did surprisingly well. Plus, they run down some of the topics they are excited to cover in the upcoming year.

You are sure to remember this episode for its smooth transitions and the fact the Brads discuss many memorable topics. Topics like, scientific evidence of man flu, what your tanning practices say about you, ground breaking Huntington's treatment and the physical basis of memory. Scientology eat your heart real science has found the engram!!

The Brad's are here to share with you the secrets to being likable, reducing stress, testing if the world is flat and hacking evolution.

Oh, there is also some talk about the race for military strength A.I but don't fret, the Brad's have your back and are here guide you through this brave new world.
