| 0:00.0 | Welcome to today's Science versus Bullshit. |
| 0:02.7 | Sorry if anyone was just there watching me stare into the distance. |
| 0:08.1 | It took a long time to load, so I don't know how long I've actually been here. |
| 0:11.9 | But I am here now. |
| 0:14.1 | I have a ton of really great questions. |
| 0:18.2 | You know what else I just ate was a Muller rice pudding. So random. I haven't had one in |
| 0:25.9 | years and I was like, yeah, okay. I just thought, okay, yeah, I'll have one. It was quite nice. |

| 1:39.1 | If feminism is about equality and autonomy and empowerment, then you can't make good decisions based on |
| 1:49.7 | inaccurate information that you're being exposed to, right? So when women are sold supplements |
| 1:56.4 | based on misinformation and fear and pseudoscience, that's not an informed decision. |
| 2:03.6 | And the reality is that women are the primary target for the supplement industry. |
