Every now and again I chat with astronomer Seth Shostak about some astronomical skullduggery as part of the SETI radio show "Are We Alone". The segment is called Skeptic Check, and the latest is now online, where Seth and I apply a little kryptonite to the idea of the "supermoon" causing earthquakes. You can also hear Joe Nickell talking Bigfoot, and other scientists discussing the Mozart Effect and magic. It's a good show... but as we say, don't take our word on it. Go hear it for yourself!
