Still best to come in person if you're able of course but really glad this is available too :D

Check out Alice's bit on the upcoming report on - this is one of THE MOST STUDIED additives, with strong evidence it's totally fine if you're not drinking 13 dirt cokes a day (excess is always a problem!).

No riskier than pickled veg. People drink boatloads of a week then want to panic about sugar replacements?! We are TERRIBLE at assessing and balancing risk. So bad.

Y'all, The Sunday Show is starting!

Unfortunately, Jimmy is not well so Forrest is co-hosting with Matt. Forrest is not my cup of tea but Matt is my guy. Forrest... the guy just has an annoying energy, always seems to have a smug grin. maybe it's his voice but he bugs me. Anyway.

ETA: it’s sick and sad we’re in this position in the first place, that we have to do a whole circuitous song and dance to buy relief. But it’s nice to know out there has a better life now"

Check out this brilliant talk from @mikehall314 at last year's all about - what it is, and most importantly, what it isn't!
nerds, you'll love it. Medics should all watch it.

No thanks to Ben Goldacre, so many otherwise skeptical people consider this particular brand of Magic to be the one that Actually Works.
Nope.

Watching and, unsurprisingly, grossed out. These people are incomprehensible to me but I must admit they are not so extreme in America. Thoughtless faith is a thing.

I do see that skeptics of this way of life must have been as frustrated as of and subjects because the horrid crap just keep getting more popular on TV. There was no useful argument to combat it. The audience just ate up the saccharine BS. Reason was overwhelmed.

If we are going to be able to reach people, and if we are going to be successful in stemming the flow of misinformation, conspiracy and paranoia, we have to be able to be patient and personable, to be genuinely curious about other people and their motivations, and to understand as much as possible what can lead people off the beaten track, and into the wilderness.”

@dmacphee not quite. @mikehall314 has done a lot of work on . What it is, isn't, and how misunderstood it is even by fans of evidence-based medicine.

@paul

It mysteriously disappeared from the zeitgeist. 😉

But this isn't surprising to as woo comes in and out of fashion like a tide. Some years it's the yeti, some times it's flat earth, other times it's naturopathy.

This was a great podcast series about Project Alpha to debunk "psychic powers".

When happens, many skeptics will overcompensate and become zealots for the agenda.

They've already proven their idiocy via their arrogant pseudoskepticism against all evidence.

That level of impairment doesn't go away with ET arrival. It can blow like a leaf to the other extreme.

The perfect ET ploy:

1) manufacture to keep humanity from investigating,

2) create agents to mislead anyone who does get curious,

3) show up, control narrative on own terms.
