Just Saying Words For No Reason - May 19, 2025

The show opens with London-based foreign correspondent Tony Five reading a listener's texts. Tony's top story: British magic club rights a wrong. On Conspiracy Corner, Dr. Lee Kuhnle visats [sic] and goes over various papal conspiracies – past and present. (Check out Lee's podcast here.) Dr. Elisa Becker explains the difference between distaste and disgust, and what bacon and poop have in common. Psychology lecturer Dr. Jasmin Wertz shares how childhood maternal warmth predicts your key personality traits. Tony Five returns in time for caller Mike from Windsor to share his Advice For Your Tomorrow's Self, Yesterday (AFY-TSY). David gets angry when Mike's advice isn't really advice. Cancer epidemiologist Dr. Parveen Bhatti reveals that scrolling through screens at bedtime greatly increases your risk of insomnia. Atmospheric and oceanic sciences professor Brian Toon lists what would happen if WW3 broke out, and the safest countries to be in if it happens.
