Hello everyone and welcome to talk nerdy. It is Monday July 18th and I'm

your host Kara Santa Maria. I'm so excited because this week I finally sat down with Bob novella of the Skeptics

guide to the universe. He is the last rogue that I actually had on the show so I'm really excited to share that with you

guys but before we jump into it I just want to thank those of you who made talk nerdy

possible this week now remember talk nerdy is and will always be 100% free to download and the way

that I'm able to make it free for every single person is through the generous

support of listeners like you. Man, I sound like public television.

So this week I want to thank those of you

who visited my Patreon page at patreon.com

slash talk nerdy or who went there by visiting my website kerosanta Maria

dot com. Specifically I want to give a shout out to Phil T-Bare and Timothy Glover

who are giving at the highest level this week and also I want to give a shout out to Rod Adams, Charles Payet, sorry Charles, Jafe, the Honorable

husband, Gabriel Felipe Haryngenzales, Ken Fyfer, Brian Holden, and last but as usual, not least Jeffrey Sewell.

I also want to thank those of you who give as you can because again it really helps keep the podcast going.

All right, enough of that. Without any further ado, here he is your skeptical rogue

from the Skeptics Guide to the universe Bob novella

Bob. Thank you so much for joining me to talk nerdy today. Oh my god my pleasure I've been looking forward to this we've been trying to do it for many many many I guess

months and we finally yeah months now yeah like oh either you were busy or I was
