Science Faction

Science Faction016

In this week’s episode, we discuss the largest female penis in nature, the sex life of mice in pain, a man with a mullet who was beaten so badly that he became a genius, new evidence for a much earlier Homo sapien migration out of Africa and how to help make sick insects get healthy quicker. All of that and we talk about the Dunning-Kruger Effect, the podcast Startalk and Damian reveals an interesting fact about Uncle Phil from the TV show, Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

WARNING: Particularly Offensive Episode!

In this unintentionally offensive episode, we discuss how snails will make the heroine of the future, how bothering mice ruins their unborn children's lives, how plastic shopping bags may fuel your car, how lab-made vaginas are awkward to talk about with your dad, why deaf peoples' brains aren't as messed up as we thought, why it's still cool to eat at Chillis and how dads are faking their children's autism to get laid. All of that and we find out the disgusting truth about FeBos and why you should never let Damian deliver your baby.

ScienceFaction014

In this episode we discuss a benefit of using Ketamine, how to cure Schizophrenia by getting cancer, how scientists are reading peoples' minds, and how a French guy with an awesome name might massacre hundreds of natives in the Amazon. We also talk about water discovered on one of Saturn's moons, the genetic link between impulsivity and procrastination, the resurgence of a deadly disease in the US, and what happens to women with small brains.

ScienceFaction013

In this episode, we reveal the secret scientific Kumite! Then we discuss how one organism 250 million years ago killed almost every living thing on Earth and shaped the modern biological world, a new study on why unborn babies should stop smoking, why Oxytocin can be almost as much fun and trouble as Oxycontin, why there wasn't and never will be dinosaurs cloned in a lab, a great story on the podcast of my mortal enemy, and the story of one researcher who really disappointed her parents (and the biological community). All this and we hear about Damian's first sexual experience and we find out how Steven Hawking really ended up in that chair.

ScienceFaction012

On this week's episode we discuss the apparent damage of cocaine use to something other than comedians' careers, the Genghis Khan of Grizzly Bears, why Burmese Pythons will soon replace GPS devices, how a Dyson Sphere can actually be cooler than a Dyson vacuum and the horrible things that happen when you pee in the pool. All that and we get another very special caller when Cyborg Carl Sagan decides to call in.

ScienceFaction011

In this episode we discuss the story that rocked the physics world to its core, ancient aquatic sloths, why muscle-bound elderly zombies will be our demise, how stupidity is killing New York's children, how the weather helped one man kill 60 million people (and have sex with many, many women) and the creamy white bodily fluid that has an unlikely use.

ScienceFaction010

In this episode we discuss why we're shoving old people full of LSD, the Native American version of New York City, whether or not we were tricked into jacking up some cells, fake Russian pyramids, a real cure for HIV, the (non)problems with giving women birth control, the reboot of Cosmos and the problem that rich white women are having. Also, we talk about wishing horrible things happen (or have happened) to horrible people and how Alzheimer's disease is not nearly as fun as you may have been lead to believe.  To top it all off, Robert calls out a fellow science educator and demands a fight to the death to settle the matter.

ScienceFaction009

In this week's episode, we talk about the reason females get autism at a far lower rate than males (and how we can level the playing field), where all the Native Americans come from (Hint: Atlantis!), why a quarter of all Americans are laughably ignorant, whether we can logically convince science-deniers of the truth (we can't), a crazy new branch of life that has been reanimated after being frozen in the ice for 30,000 years and why Joe Rogan is more of a legitimate skeptic than the supposed skeptics who criticize him.  We also arrange a fight between Jackie and Jenny McCarthy and discuss the best way to fight someone with Down's Syndrome.

ScienceFaction008

In this episode we talk about growing lungs in a lab, creature-powered cyborg body parts, how to find tumors with an MRI, a new way to name all living things, the accuracy of Astrology, a new Polio-like virus in California and an important scientific breakthrough that you are actually encouraged to pee on...and we do it all through the goggles of huge artificial penises and Marvel-based superheroes. 

ScienceFaction007

In this episode we talk about the age old question of how to control a monkey, the future of the world's energy, how to murder a whale and why you may have to some day (hint: they're teaming up with cats), how Damian's delusions are like dreams and why billboards lie about baby hearts.  Oh, and we get a very special call from a famous Creationist who wants to debate evolution, heliocentricity and 'winning'.
