“I was a bit late to the party, but over the last few months I’ve caught up with over 30 episodes. Love the classic good cop-Dan- bad cop-James- approach! Dan does well to allow James, one of the new bad people of science, the space to vent his frustrations about the state of science. Never short of an analogy or metaphor, James is refreshingly honest and you’re never left wondering “what does James really think”! Dan provides structure, occasional reason (views on meta-analysis especially!), and does a great job bringing James back from his entertaining but meandering tangents. The podcast covers all of the current issues in science: open science, p-values and p-hacking, effect sizes, reproducibility, authorship, work-life balance, publish or perish cultures, statistical inconsistencies, preregistering, and more. The hosts provide great advice about useful software for researchers, such as slack, authorea, and R. For anyone who thinks there are no problems with science this podcast is not for you; for everyone else, this podcast is most certainly for you!”
