Canola oil, soybean oil, corn oil.

According to a growing movement, seed oils like these are quietly poisoning us,

driving inflammation, obesity, and chronic disease.

It's a compelling story. The question is whether it's true.

And in our extended content for premium members, why olive oil gets a pass,

even though its nutritional profile is no better than seed oils.

That's today on Skeptoid.

Hey everyone, Brian here. Here's something special for those of you who can't get enough Skeptoid.

This December, we have two Skeptoid adventures running back to back, and you can do both,

as a little holiday present to yourself.

First, join me and New Orleans expert Chris Purley

for a two-night French Quarter getaway,

where ghosts, vampires, and voodoo queens

get the full skeptoid treatment.

Benignets, jazz, swamp tours,

and the city's famous above-ground cemeteries included.

Then the very next day we set sail with archaeologist Curly Tlapoyawa for a seven-night

Maya expedition through Kazumel, Roatan, and Harvest Key, separating Maya myth from magnificent

reality at every stop.

Book both and we'll knock an additional $500 off

your total. One adventure or both. The choice is yours. Get all the details and reserve your spot

at sceptoid.com slash adventures. That's sceptoid.com slash adventures. Hope to see you there.
