Weekend Variety Wireless - Hour 2 - 17/6/18

A baby sadly recently died in the United States after her parents refused to give her a routine vitamin K shot upon birth. Siouxsie Wiles joins Mike Puru to expose hoaxes, woo and scams for what they arent. Babys when born, dont have enough vitamin K to prevent severe bleeding in the brain or intestines. Siouxsie emphasises the importance of the vaccination. Also, the Kombucha conversation is continued. The FIFA world cup has brought about psychic pets oncemore! Matt Parker has started a project where you can register your pet to predict the world cup results. Plus, the two discuss Shawn Rice, one of the most prolific debunkers of online hoaxes, being baited. Also, Mike Puru is joined by John Dybvig for Letter from America, to share the latest news of the week from the United States. Earlier in the week, the summit took place. Dybvig believes it to be a huge public relations stunt in attempts to win a Nobel peace Prize in the footsteps of former United States president Barack Obama. Nothing was signed that says North Korea will denuclearise. Theyre simply going to work towards denuclearisation. Theyve been saying this for thirty god damn years! Let me school you, Dybvig says to Mike before unleashing his opinions on Trump... Trump did a press conference in front of the White House this week. He told 19 lies Dybvig then lists an array of lies... Trump is fundamentally destroying the fabric of American democracy. Word of the week is flip- the two banter over where the word applies in American politics. Plus, Phil Nicholson putts a moving ball in the US Open. Warning: John does always try to contain himself, but there are a few swear-words used, so listen to this week's Letter from America at your own risk. Weekend Variety Wireless with Mike Puru, in for Graeme Hill, 8pm - midnight Saturdays and Sundays, on RadioLIVE and streaming live to the Rova app on Android and iPhone. RadioLIVE.
