As it’s said, truth is stranger than fiction. On Iron Culture we’ve pointed out multiple fantastical, claims backed by pseudoscience that were just gimmicks designed to make you buy something.

0:46.8 | listeners a neat little snapshot into how we come up with some of the ideas and what ultimately |
