@gordpennycook.bsky.social also clarifies his pivotal role in a tragic case: how a once promising researcher on cooperation ( @dgrand.bsky.social ) got lost to misinformation and fake news. [as someone interested in cooperation, I'm totally not bitter that David Rand changed directions ;) ] 4/3

Thanks! Wasn't too much of a problem audio-wise, I doubt most people will notice or care

That was a special one, glad you liked it, I had no idea whether any of the usual listeners would find this interesting. I guess just following what I find interesting seems to work quite well

3 episodes in a row on scientific fraud was fun, but back to actual science now 4/3

Coincidentally, the next episode will also be about fraud, as I discussed various types of publication fraud with @nhwise.bsky.social. That'll complete an accidental triptych on scientific fraud. Out on Friday. 4/3

So many great parts to the book that we didn't even get around to discussing this important aspect (or the ways that peer review failed in journals like Nature). Great to hear from someone with direct experience of the way Bell Labs used to work!

Thanks! Eugenie just got the rights back for the book, so there should be a 2nd edition out, but seems like the timeline is uncertain right now: x.com/EugenieReich...

We planned on also discussing @eugenie-reich.bsky.social's current work as a lawyer defending scientific whistleblowers, but ran out of time. Eugenie kindly agreed to do a 2nd interview, in which we discuss all legal aspects of scientific fraud. That episode will be out this Friday. 4/4
