We have some listener feedback about the name of ‘Grok’ and a tip to sign a very important petition regarding NASA. In TWISH we hear how a timely letter kicked Darwin into action and made him finally publish ‘that book’. We then dig into the news:

  • UK: ‘Notable increase’ in scammers tricking people into sending money abroad
  • INTERNATIONAL: Retraction Watch’s ‘Sleuths in Residence’
  • INTERNATIONAL: More than half of top 100 mental health TikToks contain misinformation
  • EU: Gene editing should be allowed in the EU for sustainability
  • DENMARK: Paper on ‘wokeness’ and mental health retracted
  • GERMANY: Google’s wrong information reeks havoc on the Autobahns

The NHS will make a new gonorrhoea vaccine available in England and Wales and for that they are Really Right.


Enjoy!
