Dear @PrismPodcast,

Hello. I am an employee/host of you, along with @SkepticalDDS. I have attempted to contact your HR department but have not heard anything for years. Am I still employed by you?

Sincerely,
Clay Jones

I’m honored to have been a part of something that launched so many careers, particularly @CaulfieldTim, @AlanLevinovitz, and so many more! Nobody had even heard of @DrPaulOffit before we introduced him to the world. Also James Randi, Michael Mann. They all stood on our shoulders!

Eight years ago today, @jasonluchtefeld and @SkepticalDDS hatched a silly idea at TAM to start The Prism Podcast. After a while, @SBMPediatrics took over for Jason. We don’t post much now, but it’s been a great ride and we’ve met countless amazing people who are now friends.

The wearing of masks has become contentious on scientific and ideological grounds. Why is that, and how can we communicate with people who don’t follow the scientific guidelines? Asks @SkepticalDDS for @ScienceBasedMed. https://t.co/pACu9qaofO

But what about the people with 2.6 or 2.8 <gestures vaguely> mordalities?

For I think only the 2nd time in almost ten years, @PharmacistScott and I accidentally covered the same topic in our posts this week. Please still check out my thoughts on the “Benadryl Challenge” tomorrow morning at @ScienceBasedMed!

The Role of Cognitive Dissonance in the Pandemic
with Carol Tavris. August 27th – 7:00 PM EDT
Despite the evidence, why do so many people still refuse to wear masks, practice social distancing, or even believe that the virus exists?

This is just embarrassing as a recommendation from a CC gastroenterologist:

“Because vitamin C is an antioxidant and vital to maintaining overall health, it actually can help boost your little one’s immune system if they have the sniffles,” says Dr. Radhakrishnan.”
