The Skeptics’ Guide to the Universe Live

Join the presenters of ‘The Skeptics Guide to the Universe’ podcast for their one-off London show.


Join the presenters of ‘The Skeptics Guide to the Universe’ podcast for their one-off London show. Steven Novella, along with ‘Skeptical Rogues’ Bob Novella, Jay Novella and Evan Bernstein explain the tenets of skeptical thinking and debunk some of the biggest scientific myths, fallacies and conspiracy theories (anti-vaccines, homeopathy, UFO sightings, and many more.) They’ll help us try to make sense of what seems like an increasingly crazy world using powerful tools like science and philosophy.

In what promises to be a fascinating and entertaining evening, come and hear tips and tricks on how to see through the fake news and media manipulation in our increasingly confusing world.

‘A fantastic compendium of skeptical thinking and the perfect primer for anyone who wants to separate fact from fiction.’ Richard Wiseman, author of 59 Seconds

‘A terrific book for anyone who wants a better understanding about the world around them and an essential guide to navigating modern life. THE SKEPTICS’ GUIDE TO THE UNIVERSE will help readers recognize pitfalls in reasoning, combat bad arguments and avoid superstitious thinking.’ — Simon Singh, author of The Code Book and Fermat’s Last Theorem

‘Thorough, informative, and enlightening… If this book does not become required reading for us all, we may well see modern civilisation unravel before our eyes.’ Neil deGrasse Tyson, author of Astrophysics for People in a Hurry
