episode 409: TheESP – Ep. #409 – Horoscope Humbug


Sorry for the delay guys, but we’re back! We have a host of tips for our listeners to get engaged in in the new year. In this week’s TWISH we hear about the Basel Massacre in 1349, gruesome stuff. Then we look at the news:

  • ROMANIA: Measles declared an epidemic after infant death
  • INTERNATIONAL: Large language models validate misinformation
  • UK: King Charles’ “Ayurvedic Centre of Excellence” turns out to be an embarrassing failure
  • GERMANY: Nikil Mukerji appointed CSI Fellow
  • GERMANY: Zeit Online reveals there’s nothing behind newspaper horoscopes

The Really Wrong aware goes to so-called “Energy Healer” Jean-Maurice Latsague, not just an alt-med scammer but also a sex abuser.

Happy new year!
