Sieve like brains, yes, but luckily there are plenty of quotes on here to remind us

And even though Series 6 is officially over⁠, all episodes are still available if you've missed out or need a little refresher
⁠
We're off to find some more guests with interesting topics and of course plenty more gin
⁠
See ya!

20/06/2024

Join us tomorrow with our resident gin expert Emma Stokes (the Gin Monkey) and sound wizard, executive producer and the only one who keeps us all in line, Ben Carver (Sorry Ben), to chat about series 6.

Cheers!

It's Tuesday Boozeday!

And even though we don't have som**hing new to try in the tasting room, we've still got plenty over. Plus, we're all getting together on Friday to chat about the gins and topics that we've had on the series. So we're busy choosing our favourite to drink then. Can you guess what it may be?

What would you choose?

From Flying squirrels to swamp m**hane, we’ve had a blast chatting to our guests this series. Thank you to all of them for joining us!

Especially considering they often give us much more of their time than we can fit into a single episode. So, as a little treat, we’re giving you some of the bits we had to cut out…

Tune in tomorrow at 5pm to hear some extra content from both the tasting rooms and the main episodes from this series.

Cheers!

What is it with bonkers billionaires using science for bad? ⁠
⁠
Want to find out how the next bond villain might make his move? Or just to fall into a spiral of ‘why is science so cool and also so scary?’ Well then, we have a treat for you… ⁠
⁠
Pour yourself a gin and listen to this week’s episode now⁠

Want to learn about som**hing amazing and scary? It’ll be in a Doctor Who episode before we know it… No, it’s not an alien discovery.

This week we’re learning all about CRISPR from Soren Hough. Soren is a writer and a scientist who completed a PhD in Biochemistry at Cambridge. He has been working with and writing about CRISPR since 2014 and is currently a Visiting Scientist in the DNA repair laboratory of Prof Sir Steve Jackson.

He’s going to answer the question, CRISPR: What is it, why is it both amazing and scary, and what does this new technological power mean for society?

And if you haven’t already, go and listen to our tasting room to meet Emma and the Everleaf Marine we’ll be drinking

Cheers!

We joke about nature vs nurture a lot on this podcast but this week we’re looking at environment and how it might affect children’s health. So less ‘does Áine’s swearing come from Sarah’ and more ‘is green space really that important?’

Our guest is Pia Hardelid, a Professor of Epidemiology at the University College London. Pia is leading a project called the Kids’ Environment and Health Cohort which is setting up a new national data resource for research into how the local environment affects children’s health as they grow up in England. She’s going to help us answer the question: how can we understand the relationship between children’s health and the environments they grow up in?

Join us tomorrow at 5pm to find out! And if you haven’t already, go and listen to our tasting room to meet Pia and the Clean G we’ll be drinking

Cheers!

Have you ever found a paper sexy? What about if you knew that someone had worked super hard for years to get it all above board and published? Hot, right?

Want to hear more? ‘Course you do

Pour yourself a gin and listen to this week’s episode now if Scientific Integrity gets you all hot under the collar… or even if it doesn’t.

Is integrity just a buzzword used in romance dramas? Not this week!

We’re talking all things Scientific Integrity with our guest, Dr Simone Cuff. Simone is a biomedical researcher who currently works with a major scientific publisher checking scientific papers for research integrity issues and signs of fraud. She’s going to help us answer the question: What are the incentives that mean that people who have dedicated their lives to the pursuit of truth twist that truth?

And if you haven’t already, go and listen to our tasting room to meet Emma and the Never Never Triple Juniper gin we’ll be drinking

If you want to catch Áine and Sarah you need a large gin. Any other mammal? Peanut butter and oatmeal… aka, m**h.

Wondering which animal we’re trying to catch? Or maybe thinking about how you could protect a flying squirrel this weekend?

If so, pour yourself a gin and listen to this week’s episode now

Cheers!

25/04/2024

Flying Squirrels! Less popular than flying pigs but perhaps more important?

This week we’re joined by Jeremy Howard - PhD student at the University of Missouri St. Louis in the US. He’s currently studying bumblebees but his previous work was on flying squirrels, so as we’ve already talked about bees with Hamish back in series 1, we decided that flying squirrels deserved some airtime instead (get that, airtime!!!)

Join us tomorrow at 5pm

And if you haven’t already, go and listen to our tasting room to meet Emma and the Cambridge Curator’s gin we’ll be drinking

Cheers!

23/04/2024

It’s Tuesday Booze(less)day!

This week we’re doing som**hing a bit different. We’re tasing three tonic waters, Fever Tree, Schweppes and Double dutch

Listen now to hear all about them. If you like what you hear, go out and buy some and join us in a glass this Friday.

Cheers

On this podcast we always aim to provide an excellent and accurate peer review of our chosen gin.

Have you ever wondered how you know what you’re reading is worth trusting? Or wondered about how long it takes for the science we read to be shared?

If so, pour yourself a gin and listen to this week’s episode now

Cheers!
