Description

Also, Benedict works in mysterious ways
We talk about the great new CFI fellows announced, wonder what happens to Ukraine (please note that we recorded this episode one day before the invasion…) and welcome the fact that the Philippines plan to roll out production of Golden Rice. In TWISH we hear about Gutenberg and his bible that was published this week way back in 1455. Pontus pokes both popes and then we look at the news:

FRANCE: Djokovic keeps being wrong…
GERMANY: Association of Catholic Doctors and homeopathic conversion therapy
INTERNATIONAL: Scientists call for science collaboration to be put before politics
INTERNATIONAL: New study: The Einstein Effect – how people believe weird shit if they think it was said by scientists
EUROPE: Black death not as devastating all over Europe as previously thought?
UPDATE FROM LAST WEEK: Great response to call for skeptical translators! Join them!
Meta gets today’s Really Wrong Award for keep saying that they don’t allow misinformation when in fact they promote it, and the Swedish authorities gets a Really Right for regulating health claims on supplements and food.

Enjoy!
