Episode Description

András is back in good form and we start with a report from the Swedish Skeptics at the Gothenburg Book Fair – real life astronauts where involved! A little listener feed back and then we go to TWISH to hear about German R&B Singer and conspiracy theorist Xavier Naidoo. Then it’s time for the news:

SWEDEN: Secret Service confirms State of Iran behind disinformation text messages re Quran burnings
INTERNATIONAL: Social media moguls are a concern to most experts regarding misinformation
BELGIUM: And the Pope is still a misogynist
PORTUGAL: Public trust drives vaccine uptake regardless of age

To round up we hand a Really Wrong Award to well-known homeopath Michael Frass, who keeps implying that homeopathy can treat cancer – but his arguments are based on falsified research…

Enjoy!
