Sci Guys is a podcast all about the weird and unbelievable ways that scientists learn about the world around us. Each week, Corry (@notcorry) tells the story of a particularly strange scientific study while his friends Jamp (@jampkin) and Luke (@lukecutforth) do their best to derail the conversation with questions, jokes, and whatever nonsense they can think of.

Psychiatric hospitals & mental asylums often receive a bad rap in fiction, but is there any truth to that? This week we dive into the crazy history and science of psych wards!
CORRECTION
We mentioned that one can be admitted to a psychiatric ward via showing up at the ward itself, without prior referral.
This is very much not the case (as detailed in #1 of our references & further reading). In the UK one should speak to a GP, psychiatrist, or another healthcare specialist for a referral to inpatient psychiatric care.
Apologies for the error! We make an effort to an accurate & reliable source of information, and while sometimes we make mistakes, we are always open to corrections.

Do you ever have a thought come to mind that doesn’t feel like something you’d think, a thought that can make you feel disgusted or uneasy? Those are intrusive thoughts, and while they’re strongly associated with mental illness, they might be a bit more common than you might think…

American History tends to ignore the achievements of black people - which is why you probably haven’t heard of Benjamin Banneker… He was a polymath who went verbally toe to toe with Thomas Jefferson on the topic of slavery, was instrumental in the creation of the capital, and did so much more!

At the end of WWII hundreds of uranium cubes made for the Nazi nuclear program were taken by the USA, but they didn't take them all. Quite a number of these nuclear cubes went missing... A few have popped up here and there, until recently it's always been near impossible to tell if a cube is real, or just a really good replica - but scientists have just found a wild new way to find which ones are fakes...

Finding fossils frequently for financial funding was Mary Anning’s sole source of income for most of her life, but she didn’t just find and sell fossils - she was one of the most accomplished palaeontologists of her time. Unfortunately she was also a woman, more specifically a woman from a lower class background, which meant that she did not receive the formal recognition she deserved in her lifetime.

We also go into the invention of artificial insemination and IVF

Othniel Marsh and Edward Cope were not only mortal enemies, but also two of the most prolific palaeontologists of all time!

If you had the chance to change your child’s genes, would you? Is that Eugenics?
Those are the questions we debate today! Gene editing has come to the point that we can choose almost any feature we like for our unborn children. As usual, science has run far ahead leaving important ethical questions behind. Jurassic Park have been onto something...

Do rats go to heaven? The answer is yes, but it’s not as nice as you might think!
Corry tells the story of John B Calhoun, a man who ran massive, years long experiments on rats and mice to really see what made them tick. Turns out rats and humans aren’t as different as we expected.

Do vaccines cause autism? That’s just one of the questions we’re debating this week. We get into the scientific roots of the Antivax movement, and figure out whether it’s really that dangerous to choose to leave a child unvaccinated.
Whether you believe in vaccinations or not, there’s something for you in this episode. Have a listen, and hopefully you’ll learn something about both sides of this debate.
