    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    We’ve had a bunch of feedback to the last newsletter, rightly calling out an article on UV that relied on weak evidence. The resulting conversation, continued in this episode of the Yeah… Nah! Podcast, revolves around how (if at all) we publish articles that aren’t on solid ground when it comes to the level of evidence for their claims.

    Katrina is back, and Tim Atkin is also joining us for this episode of the Yeah… Nah! podcast. We start off talking about some cheeky changes that have happened in Rationalist House in Auckland, adding labels to all the portraits on the walls declaring them to be part of the “Dead Old White Men” series. Katrina lets us know what advice the NZ Police are now giving to their officers for how to deal with Sovereign Citizens. And finally Tim, Bronwyn and Mark talk about their recent visit to the “pre

    We’re missing a member in this episode of the Yeah… Nah! Podcast - Katrina has abandoned us. But have no fear, journalist Anke Richter has joined us in Katrina’s stead.

We also get some inside info on speakers for the second Decult, happening this October in Christchurch, and
