  • UNLOCKED (Full ep) ‘Fashademics’ 1 - War on Science
    Jan 15 2026

    UNLOCKED! Thanks to the new subscribers who help us hit the goal.


    ———


    Introducing a new Polite Conversations miniseries: ‘Fashademics’ - where we talk about fash adjacency in academia (something this show has already covered for a long time).


    For ep 1 of this miniseries I speak to former academic Nathan Oseroff-Spicer (nateo.bsky.social) about his review of the widely mocked ‘War on Science’ book, put together by Lawrence Krauss.


    I would love to unlock this miniseries as we go along, but that can’t happen without your help dear listeners. Each episode takes a lot of time, research and work to put together. If you’d like to help this series keep going pls consider supporting the podcast via patreon.com/nicemangos
