Episodes you may like:
This week Peter and Russell look at de-extinction. What leads animals to go extinct, what are the issues we need to consider about bringing them back from extinction and how would we do it anyway?
Did Jurassic Park get it right? Will we use dinosaur DNA found in amber? Can we bring back dinosaurs?
Have you ever heard a "fact" and thought, wow that's really interesting? Maybe you heard something and thought it was so enjoyable to know that you have repeated it yourself. How do you know it's true? Join Peter and Russell as we take a look at some of the famous facts that people have been told that have turned out to be untrue. Why did we believe them in the first place? Where did they come from? and how do we know that they're not true?
Have you ever listened to a debate or maybe participated in one and thought, that doesn't sound right? Perhaps your point was lost down a rabbit hole of confusing counter-argument? Then this episode is for you. This week Peter and Russell debate their way through logical fallacies, how to spot one and how to brush it off and win that debate.
