  • Are we sure about fluoride?

    Are we sure about fluoride?
    May 21 2025
    Florida just became the second state to ban fluoride from its water system, which has made some public health experts pretty angry.

  • The man who walked butterflies on a leash

    The man who walked butterflies on a leash
    May 19 2025
    Static electricity plays an invisible role in the natural world, and it may even help insects pollinate plants. To understand this hidden force, scientists have jumped through some pretty weird experimental hoops — and “walked” butterflies through literal hoops. Guests: Sam England, postdoctoral researcher at Berlin's National History Museum; Benji Jones, Vox's environmental correspondent To read more about this experiment, Benji recommends this great article from Quanta Magazine, where he first encountered Sam's work.

Guests: Alice Coles, artist; Adam Zeman, cognitive neurologist at the University of Exeter Medical School; Joel Pearson, professor of neuroscience at the University of New South Wales; Emily Holmes, professor of psychology at Uppsala University For show transcripts, go to ⁠⁠⁠vox.com/unxtranscripts⁠⁠⁠ For more, go to ⁠⁠⁠vox.com/unexplainable⁠⁠⁠ And please email us! ⁠⁠unexplainable@vox.com⁠⁠ We read every email.

I loved the side chuckle and comment by the host noting that Freud was wrong so much, (Paraphrasing not direct quote.)
Freud chose silence over science. Fearful Freud.

Fearful Freud…
