The current pandemic is so controversial, a heated argument aborted our first attempt at recording this episode. So we came back vaccinated against disinformation, and ready for a calmer, more entertaining discussion, on how skepticism in the face of social media clickbait, our stone-age misunderstandings of statistics, and a mistrust of government has doomed us. Will everything be all right? Well it won't ever be the same! Thanks to Kit Zellerbach for the wonderful outro music.
