About us

Y’all motherfuckers need some skollin’ in the ways of science, bitches!

 A.K.A. have a morning coffee with Oxford DPhil. newbies discussing scientific news that made its way to pop science. Weekly science reported in newspapers often glosses over important details to provide bite-sized chunks that are digestible at a glance. However, this often misrepresents and over-exaggerates the scope or importance of findings (bitch, please). But we wont bore you with hours of uni lectures, instead, we record our morning conversations, which we hope will let you see how striking, accessible, and often times, flawed these experiments are. Please bare that in mind that most of the times we are not experts on the given topic, and our sleepy-headed chats are just a way to expand a little bit what you can read in the media.

 Disclaimer: We both think the highlighted work is amazing and, in most cases, beyond doubt shows a humongous amount of work, dedication, and skill. This podcast was not born to question that, only to highlight the importance of looking into the details with care and diligence.
