Episode Description

We talk a little bit of the upcoming Germany federal elections this weekend and in TWISH we hear about Carl von Rokitansky the Austrian physician, pathologist, humanist philosopher and liberal politician and founder of the Viennese School of Medicine of the 19th century. How he managed to dissect tens of thousands of bodies is baffling and just a little bit scary…

Then, we turn to the news:

UK: Prof. Jim Al-Khalili gets Darwin Day Medal
SWEDEN: Murder of Quran burner
FRANCE: Didier Raoult can’t stop spreading bullshit
ITALY: Italian ‘mystic’ may face trial after DNA match with blood on Virgin Mary statue
INTERNATIONAL: Elisabeth Bik Science Integrity Fund launches

We hand out a Really Right Award (for once) and a little surprisingly it goes to the UK government for an ambitious project to spot climate change tipping points. We also have a Norwegian Word of the Week, tune in to find why Elon Musk may not be thrilled about it.

Enjoy!
