On April Fools’ Day, Dr Cat talks to science communicator/comedian/entertainer Owen Collins. They dive into the trickiest side of science: the legendary pranks that fooled the world, the real scientific facts that sound like total nonsense, and shenanigans that you can try out yourself. They experiment with the fine line between fact and fiction, and teach us that curiosity and a healthy dose of skepticism go hand in hand.
This episode originally aired on 1st April, 2025… yes, really.
