Highly informative, wonderfully entertaining, yet unclassifiable (hence the lack of awards "and the award for the podcast about stuff and things and such...".) Alice, Marsh, and that other guy ... oh yeah, Mike Hall (actually an unsung hero in the skeptic community) discuss topics on bad medicine, bad surveys, bad reporting, and practices that prey on the vulnerable and uninformed (which is all of us at one point or another).
Their compassion is evidenced by their genuine anger at those who willfully misrepresent bunk and by the causes the three and their parent org support.
But the most important part of the presentation remains the fun, humor, and conversational style. We all rooted for Alice as she joined the group just a year ago as a podcasting novice and has grown to become fully engaged in the incessant side-bars that are the core of the entertainment value.
To really discover what this podcast is all about I usually point people to episode 100, which gives wonderful examples of the story styles covered. But the quality of recent episodes all demonstrate the entertainingly informative skeptical dissection of recent reporting and events. Congratulations to Alice and those two guys.
Since this is an iTunes review rather than a blog, I've horribly abbreviated what should be a more fully reasoned explanation of why this could become your favorite podcast. I'm sorry about that (or I could say "your welcome", depending on what you're looking for.)
Random highlights: incessant bad puns, humor that is thankfully not so "British", QED, Alice explaining the biology part of quackery, Mike's universe of music and attire, Marsh being ... well ... Marsh.
Btw, I have a thing about parenthetical phrases. I'm seeking help.
