Fantastic time chatting with @ConorJDillon and Gabriel Borrud on last week's #ScienceUnscripted (@dw_scitech). We focused on my recent research with @samclab as part of a larger conversation regarding the origins of human #morality. Thanks for having me! dw.com/en/kids-dont-need-god…

Had a fun conversation w/ @ConorJDillon + Gabriel Borrud for #ScienceUnscripted podcast @dwnews Starting from @SpacLab's recent paper, we discussed how much we should "dumb down" science to make it accessible and lowering the bar for saying "I don't know" dw.com/en/moderate-knowledge…

Why are we pretending sex in space doesn’t exist? How come @NASA is so prude? @ConorJDillon, Gabriel Borrud and I looked into it for the Science Unscripted podcast of @dw_scitech open.spotify.com/episode/3nR…
This was one of the outcomes predicted by game theorist @mikeselinker a few months ago p.dw.com/p/3jr7K?maca=en-Twi…
