This week we mention World Hepatitis Day (28 July) and new study that (again) finds no relationship between mobile cellphones and cancer. We also have two short interviews by Annika(!) from Skepticon Australia, with Richard Saunders and George Hrab! In TWISH we hear about John Tyndall, Irish physicist and great science communicator.

Then we take a look at the news:

  • SWEDEN: Quackery round-up: Frequency therapy
  • AUSTRIA: Kneipp Therapy: Popular tradition, still very little evidence
  • FRANCE / SPAIN: Wildfires in France and Spain
  • INTERNATIONAL: Snopes’ AI detection toolkit

The Really Wrong Award goes to the new phenomenon of ‘Agentic AI’.

Enjoy!
