@awairwolf We've talked about it! Thanks for the suggestion

If @sciencevs ever did an episode about long covid, it's be incredible! I understand they got tired of talking about covid because of how drawn out it was during early pandemic. It's still going around. It's highly pertinent. I got long covid just last year. Discuss the science!

🚨New episode alert!! 🚨 We're tackling RELATIONSHIPS. There's a ton of online claims about them, from lists of surefire red flags to the idea that if you don't fight well, your relationship is doomed. So — what's legit, according to science?? open.spotify.com/episode/3UnfHZ…

We're tackling a big question: Will AI make us stupid? There are claims that LLMs like ChatGPT will torpedo our critical-thinking skills — and there's a ton of hand-wringing over the effect they could have on students. But what does the research say?? open.spotify.com/episode/3rID2W…

@DaCaveOfWonders I mean, we're not totallyyyyyy sure we'd trust AI on this one (we'd check those citations), but it is funny that you 1. asked the question at all, and 2. used AI

@sciencevs Is it just funny that I'm using AI to help with this question or do you contest the conclusion?

This episode ends with the host deciding that it's too much energy to make a picture of her bf and cat cuddling together and instead she should return to putting salmon on his fingers to help them bond. I asked Claude about the relative environmental footprints of the two

🤓🤓🤓 THANK YOU for listening!

2- Science Vs Trump. Release in Jan 2029 (if he leaves office) and pull from every topic. Ex. Acetaminophen- “did a full episode on it” etc. List out how many falsities have come out. Possibly your biggest epi. The citations list would be 2000+ if you counted all from each epi.

@sciencevs love your show, hear me out on 2 things. 1- If you were to take a listener recommendation and run with it, bring them on to do the intro something like NPR Politics openers. …

Today: chiropractors! Some folks say the chiro can ease their aches and pains. But there are also bigger claims — like the idea that kids or babies should go, for stuff like asthma, colic ... even breastfeeding issues?! We crack open the science👇 open.spotify.com/episode/0xy74T…

@DaCaveOfWonders We'd argue that we didn't abandon the frame; we just moved to talking about AI at scale in the real world — and the fact that the U.S. grid is still highly reliant on fossil fuels

They started off doing a good job of comparing the energy used in AI to equivalent microwave seconds (it would have been nice to also compare oven usage or one meal's worth of meat) and then they just abandon that frame and start considering any energy use bad
