Episode #388

from Skeptics with a K · host Skeptic Media Limited

Alice looks at the latest TikTok trend of 'sungazing', and Mike digs into a new study which says honest placebos help alleviate stress, anxiety and depression. Meanwhile, Mike tries to avoid small talk when he goes in for surgery. Note: The description of Mike's surgery includes a few references to the surgery itself that squeamish listeners may want to steel themselves for. Tickets for QED 2024 are still available, priced £189 for a full weekend of science, reason, and critical thinking. Mixed and edited by Morgan Clarke.
