| 0:18.8 | the podcast for science reason and critical thinking. Skeptics for the KSA production of the Merseys |
| 0:23.6 | Skeptic Society, a nonprofit organization for the promotion of scientific |
| 0:27.3 | skepticism on Merseys around the UK and internationally. I'm your host Mike Hall |
| 0:31.6 | with me today is Marsh hello and Alice so this week we had |
| 0:36.4 | our big QED run-through meeting which I don't know if listeners know that we do this I |
| 0:41.5 | don't know if we talked about it on there before we might have done I don't know if we do this I don't know if we talked about it on there before we might |
| 0:43.5 | have done I don't know but we sit down all of us and we go through the event |
