 I shoot you dead. Level: 9 CS Original | Skeptoid Once I get caught up on all of those, as I do want to listen to EVERY EPISODE (so far have done each episode of Skeptoid and 5x5), I want more. MORE! Any recommendations? I'm considering Rationally Speaking and Conspiracy Skeptic as the next show I take a look at once I get caught up on another. | |||||

 Level: 9 CS Original | Skeptoid I have listened to a few episodes of the Conspiracy Skeptic... but I wasn't a big fan. The episodes I heard had very poor sound quality and took forever to get anywhere. Been meaning to check out Righteous Indignation and Quackcast though. I still have a bit of a backlog to get through. | |||||

I shoot you dead. Level: 9 CS Original | Quackcast is pretty awesome. It's clear he has a ton of scorn for alternative medicine, so he definitely mocks it a LOT, but he also brings in plenty of facts and explains the pseudoscientific hogwash that backs up a lot of alternative medicine. In one episode, he goes into the herbal medicine (especially the classic Chinese herbs in such high demand) that likes to claim it's so green. But in many cases involves killing animals like tigers and rhinos, to the point of near extinction for parts of their bodies that have supposed healing properties, if you want to do it the 'right' way, which is in such demand. I decided to check out Conspiracy Skeptic. The sound quality could be better, but it's the only skeptical podcast that focuses on conspiracies that I can find. And he brings in enough facts, logic, etc. | |||||

I shoot you dead. Level: 9 CS Original | It's basically Quackwatch in podcast form, by two different people. And holy crap, the Quackwatch guy must get death threats everyday, looking at his 'jeers' section. | |||||
