The AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson COVID vaccines have been in the news recently, suspected of causing a rare blood clotting issue in a small number of people who receive them. What is going on with these two vaccines, while the Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech vaccines don't seem to have this problem? What are blot clots anyway and are the one in a million and on in one hundred thousand blood clots seen here just your average clot, or something more unusual? There is plenty that scientists don't know yet, but whatever we know, we want to share with you!

Profane, insane, and 100% primo science, Petri Dish is a no-BS podcast that explores the wildest subjects in modern science with clarity and evil joy. Hosted by Sean Allen, a Nanoparticle/Immunology Researcher, and Nathan Allen, his "screenwriter" brother, Petri Dish fuses hard science with a freewheeling and madcap conversational style. Cannabinoids, Plague, Cats, the dreaded Candiru, and the even more dreaded Covid-19: all these and more are dissected with intellect and irreverence, dropping every week. So reject ignorance. Join the Scientific Revolution. Join Petri Dish.
