Science Vs

There are a lot of fads, blogs and strong opinions, but then there’s SCIENCE. Science Vs is the show from Spotify Studios that finds out what’s fact, what’s not, and what’s somewhere in between. We do the hard work of sifting through all the science so you don't have to and cover everything from 5G and ADHD, to Fluoride and Fasting Diets.

A whole bunch of scientists and doctors won in the U.S. midterm elections, which has got some nerds really excited. They’re wondering: Could this turn things around for U.S. science, which has been hit by cuts and restrictions from the Trump administration?? We talk to journalist Max Kozlov from Nature to find out whether it’s time for a nerd party in the U.S.A. — or if it might be too soon to pop the champagne.
