This Is Going Well, I Think With David Cooper

Science man and bat biologist Dan Riskin joins us for a very special podcast-only episode of The Science Appliance. David unleashes huge news about his involvement with The Human Flatus Atlas and their sensor to track intestinal gas. The two discuss the following science stories: Woman sneezes out maggots after fly larvae get trapped in her deviated septum; and The customer might always be right, but apologies actually backfire in customer service. David talks about how Americans perceive the Canadian accent, as described to him by a linguist. The strange design of many AI company logos is also brought up. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for Dan's weekly science newsletter The Bat Signal⁠ by clicking here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Learn more about your ad choices.
