- The important details
My husband has always claimed graham crackers are a health food so I had to sent him the episode about Vegetarian diets. When he heard about the intended effects of the original graham crackers, he got to be right and dismayed all at once. Perfect.

United States2 months ago - Entertaining, Evidence-Based Science Done Right
Take a listen if you want actual facts and a good laugh!!! Science Communication is HARD! However, Zoë and Kylee do a first-class job. What makes YDS so special is that it sits at the intersection of entertainment and education (you actually learn things backed by actual science). They’re also not afraid to say, “We don’t know,” when there isn’t concrete evidence either way.
