The BBC iPlayer link is here.
[Note this is not the creationist nonsense of the same name]
What Darwin didn&#8217;t know was exactly how right about natural selection he was.
This is a great documentary, not so much in terms of production, but solid content. It looks at the evolution of the concept of natural selection, from Darwin [...]]]></description>

The Mellotron M400 in lucite.  Gorgeous&#8230;.

With the possible exception of a Gibson Les Paul or SG running riot through an overdriven Leslie speaker, there is no more glorious sound than that of a Mellotron being put through it’s paces.
The invention that dates back to the late 40’s was perhaps the first “sampler” that utilized [...]]]></description>

One thing I&#8217;ve learned is that to get simple explanations for things, counter to popular belief it&#8217;s better to get the view of the best physicists than the best communicators. Richard [...]]]></description>

Ben Goldacre rails against modern day fraudsters such as anti-vaccination extremists. What&#8217;s strange about anti-vaccination is that despite it being a provably fraudulent meme that is endangering lives, it is taken to be a viable stance and attacking it is seen as controversial. Even this Goldacre clip has a legal disclaimer at the end from [...]]]></description>

There is much less difference between the Democrats and the Republicans than the polarization of voters would suggest. They both sit to the right relative to most other Western economies, and both are hostage to jingoism and superstition which again registers higher than in other wealthy nations. My main beef with Bush Jnr. was [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve just finished Reading Ben Goldacre&#8217;s book, &#8216;Bad Science&#8217;, that lambasts various forms of quackery and pseudo science. Here is a New Scientist interview with him. I have also embedded a clip of Gillian McKeith a well know TV presenter in the UK, who encourages people to eat healthily, but does so in a way [...]]]></description>

Aired on Sept 4th on BBC to celebrate this weeks trial run of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, a history of the Big Bang, a story far more wonderful and imaginative than Biblical creation.
