Science is based on information that comes from experiments and data that have been independently verified. It is the antidote to fake news, and we need it now more than ever. My goal, using science as my only guide, is to get as close to the truth on major issues confronting our species today - control over your life, vaccination, dieting, mental health, addiction, legalising drugs, bullshit jobs, climate change, euthanasia, the future - issues that intrigue me and hopefully you!’
