0:00.0	Hello and welcome to Sigma Nutrition Radio. This is episode 426 of the podcast. My name is Danny Lennon. You are very welcome to the show.
0:26.6	Today I'm going to be talking with Jabian Rosario across a number of different topics that
0:32.3	generally pertain to how we can have better scientific discourse and discussion and why some of that can get
0:38.5	distorted, particularly through various online conversations, where ideology, political motive,
0:45.9	or just a general world view can sometimes get in the way of an accurate appraisal of what is
0:52.2	going on and an ability to be able to take in scientific arguments.
0:56.9	And this has really came about from discussions that I've had through social media and messaging back
1:03.5	and forth with Jabin a few times on topics like this.
1:08.7	And some of them, I think, are interesting to bring up, particularly off the back of last
1:13.8	week's podcast episode, which, again, was separate from the typical nutrition content that we have
1:20.7	here and was generally more a meta-conversation around how things can get in the way of science, or at least can impede onto science,
1:30.9	when things from outside related to ideology can essentially cause problems for effective
1:38.2	and open scientific communication. And so while we're talking about some generally different
1:43.4	ideas here, I think overall
1:45.7	there is some overlap, and so hopefully should be a nice addition to some of what was discussed
1:50.7	last week. Now, J.Bien is currently a graduate level student in public health. He has degrees in
1:57.5	psychology and philosophy, and has previously worked as a personal trainer and a nutrition
2:02.3	coach. His current interests and as most of his writing is being focused around topics like
2:07.9	science denialism, vaccine hesitancy, the philosophy of science, sociology of science, and then
2:13.8	meta science. And then within his kind of research projects right now, he's doing work
2:19.1	related to research proposals for COVID-19 and vitamin D trials, research conducted looking at
2:25.9	local food banks, and then participation in coalitions for addressing food insecurity in Pennsylvania.
