I wanted to see if the latest version of ChatGPT could write an accurate and engaging podcast episode. I picked "the forces that drive evolution by natural selection" as the topic of the podcast. Everything you hear, apart from the intro, was written by ChatGPT with no editing by me. Enjoy!

Recapitulation was the idea that as an embryo developments, it goes through stages where it resembles the fully-formed adult version of other animals. Some believers in recapitulation denied evolution, others accepted it. Some of the ideas from recapitulation can still be found in textbooks today, but the theory is considered entirely false. Recapitulation was overturned by Karl Ernst von Baer and...

How many kingdoms of life are there? Today, we say there are 7, but it also depends on who you ask. While telling the difference between a plant and an animal is relatively simple, the difference between an algae and a plant, or a bacteria and an archaea, is more difficult. There have been MANY revisions in our biological models of the kingdoms of life. This episode is the story of those revisions...

Vitalism was the belief that life is governed by unique forces different form physics or chemistry, or that life was powered by supernatural souls. In this episode, I go over the history of vitalism beginning with Ancient Greek philosophers and ending in the 20th century.

In this episode, I go over the history of the fundamental discoveries of atomic theory. The episode begins with the invention of the concept of the atom, then continues to the experiments that confirmed the existence of atoms, and their building blocks: protons, neutrons, and electrons.

A little while back I was the guest on a podcast called Everything STEAM. STEAM is a acronym that stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. In this episode, you'll hear us discuss conspiracy theories, the media, logical fallacies, science misconceptions, and much more. You can check out Everything STEAM on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and more.

In today's episode, I discuss transmutation, which is a now debunked scientific theory about how life evolves. Transmutation held to the idea that life does change, but the explanations for how and why were not based in reality. The most famous proponent of transmutation was Jean-Baptism Lamarck. Lamarck was the most famous "evolutionist" before Darwin. While Lamarckism is false, new discoveries a...

In this episode, I am interviewed by Adam Martin, who hosts a podcast called "Let's Just Talk". Adam is a dietitian but also one of my TikTok viewers and he wanted to talk to me about the world of debating flat Earthers, science deniers in general, what we can do to promote education, and more. Enjoy!

A view on TikTok wanted to know "what are the different types of evolution?". This is a good question with a complicated answer. For one, what do we mean by evolution? For two, if species change, then what IS a species? And if species change, how does it occur? Join me and my friend Science with Simon to answer these questions!

I was a guest on a YouTube show and podcast called Axioms on Trial. We discussed a huge number of different topics from Flat Earth nonsense to conspiracy theories to the educational system and much more. You can check out the host at Axioms on Trial on YouTube and Cease to Know on TikTok.

This is the first episode in a series about debunked scientific theories. Spontaneous generation was the idea that organisms can appear fully formed from various collections of matter. Where did this idea originate from, and how was it eventually overturned?

In this clip, I debate with a guest on TikTok several topics including the limitations of evolution, atheism, and what counts as a supernatural phenomenon. You can watch this debate on YouTube by checking out Planet Peterson.

In this video Science with Simon, Globemann and I discuss topics ranging from a box with an apple in it sitting around for eternity, UFOs, the end of the universe, and more.
