Old and busted: meet new hotness

Some of you may have noticed the site is undergoing a major redesign. The old look was a bit busted, and I am realize although it may seem shallow to focus primarily on the look of a site, it's undeniable human beings are drawn to what is attractive and aesthetically pleasing.

A slight correction

I received this letter from a fan of the podcast, who corrected me regarding a slight error we made on the last radio show: "Hey guys, I've been listening to the podcast for a while, and I'm thoroughly enjoying it!

The baby psychic gets tested

Here's a video of a guy who is convinced he can psychically communicate with babies being tested by James Randi. There are 4 parts to this 'documentary', but I only included the one where they actually put his so-called skills to the test. Otherwise, I found their reporting a little naive. ...

Poorly thought out bill seeks to undermine evolution

The word freedom gets tossed around a lot. It seems like the mot-du-jour for anyone smart enough to realize manipulating people is as easy as telling them that such an important value might be taken away. A few years ago, creationists wanted people to 'tech the controversy'. That was their angle, and they had managed to make a few inroads in schools. After a devastating ruling in the Kitzmiller v.
