Mondo Diablo Episode 273: Anti-Vacc is BULLSH*T!
You have to wonder, "What the hell are they thinking," but you can’t put words in their mouths and mothers are sacred. Can you convince them that no one has died from prank tainted Halloween candy? Of course not. Because they are parents. And having children turns you into an insane person who is listened to by other insane people, the politicians, who govern our lives based on whatever batshit crazy thing parents are afraid of. Parental fear ruins everything. Stop having babies.

Mondo Diablo Episode 273: The Earth; She is Unmoved
I don’t fully know what http://www.fixedearth.com/ is, and I’m not sure I want to spend all of my time figuring it out. In a nutshell, physics is wrong, Copernicus was wrong, Einstein was wrong, they were all Jews and Kaballists, and the Earth is the center of the universe.
And the guy recording these podcasts has a little imaginary friend or puppet helping him do it. Your guess is as good as mine. -
Skeptoid episode 222: Toil and Trouble: The Curse of Macbeth
They simply call it "The Scottish Play", because even to utter the title of Shakespeare’s Macbeth is to invite bad luck. The very same bad luck, in fact, that has plagued performances throughout its history, according to theater lore.

Skeptoid episode 219: Stalin’s Human-Ape Hybrids
It was the Soviet dictator’s dream: Soldiers with no fear, with superhuman strength and endurance, who would follow any order, eat anything, and ignore pain or injury. Workers who could do the labor of ten men without complaint, with no thought of personal time off, and no desire for pay.

Skeptoid: Some new logical fallacies
One of the most popular Skeptoid episodes ever was my early two-parter, A Magical Journey through the Land of Logical Fallacies. In it, we looked at some of the most common fallacious ways to argue a point; in essence, the use of rhetoric as a substitute for good evidence.

Skeptoid: Things About Which I Have In Error Been
Every so often I need to nudge myself back onto the straight and narrow. When you catch an error in a Skeptoid episode, let me know, and if I can verify that you’re right, I’ll gladly include the correction in an episode like this one. Of course most of the suggested corrections I receive are like "My very reliable Uncle Bob saw a UFO once, so you should retract your episode about Roswell." I can’t do that, because the government pays me to keep that covered up; but here are some others where the corporate paymasters’ checks either bounced or were short.

Skeptioid: The North American Union
Today we’re going to put on our cheap suits, stick earpieces in, and join the legions of multinational Secret Service agents flowing out among the populace of Canada, the United States, and Mexico; as the borders disappear and we round up a unified population into forced socialism under martial law in our gigantic new pancontinental police state.
