Disclaimer, Disclaimer, Disclaimer!!!

The following program contains scientific content intended for listeners of all ages.

Including babies, very old pets, and whatever that is growing in the back of your fridge… and yes, you can call it an experiment until you are ready to deal with it.

Some materials may be objectionable to cats.
We’re never sure which material as they are unspecific in their disdain.

If you are interested in any of the studies, experiments or methods discussed
We highly recommend you learn more about them! Links on the website.

If you disagree with any of the content or just don’t trust the validity of the methods or results of a study – Cool – no notes. Links on the website

While the views and opinions of our listening audience
may not reflect those of the show,
the hosts or the media company under which we operate….
We usually agree with you and
will always have your back in an argument even when we don’t

If you are looking for a show light on facts,
short on science
and lacking intelligent conversation
Great news, you have plenty of other options

If you want to jump into really interesting conversations
Or escape from uninteresting ones
We’ve got you covered here on
This Week in Science
