Today we're going to answer a fun round of student questions for you.

Today's questions involve the Paleo diet, EMDR therapy, rubbing stainless steel on your

hands to get rid of kitchen odors, polyphasic sleeping, which I hadn't even heard of until

I got the question, whether it's necessary to do a burn-in on electronics, and the planned

obsolescence conspiracy theory.

That's coming right up, unskeptoid.

Hey everyone, Brian here, a quick favor we're conducting an audience survey.

We'd be really grateful if you could take just a few minutes and answer our survey.

This is the kind of thing that's sort of an engineering and marketing necessity to make

the whole free podcast ecosystem flourish, so please check it out.

So surveys are fun, you get to talk about yourself.

Please visit survey.prx.org slash scaptoid to take the survey today.

That's survey.prx.org slash SKEPTOID.

Thanks.

You're listening to scaptoid, I'm Brian Dunning from scaptoid.com.

And questions, a few good myths.

These episodes where we answer student questions are among my favorites, because after all, schools

are our best opportunity to promote the value of scientific and critical thinking.

The best prepared student is the one of the best tools to make good life decisions.

Today's questions are a great batch, half of these I'd never even heard of, and I have

a pretty good handle on what pseudo-scientific woo is currently being promoted out there

in the world.
