We have long been interested in where we come from, many human civilization have created different myths and ideas about how the world came to be. But as technology advanced and scientific evidence became clear we accepted the theory of evolution, or did we?

In this weeks episode Anastasia chats to two of four hosts of the Occultae Veritatis (OVpod), Leon Filger and Ood Gallifray about Creationism and how some of the ideas came to be, as well as the current evolutionary facts that may contradict of the these ideas. OVpod is a podcast about where four curious Canadians venture into the darkest, most misunderstood, or contentious parts of our reality, which include true crime and conspiracy theories.

You can listen to OVpod on the same platforms you can find Boiling Point, including but not limited to Spotify, iTunes, and SoundCloud.

Creationism vs Evolution

Rats, pigeons, cockroaches and starlings, they all have in common to be extremely adaptable and resilient when it comes to adjusting to new environments. But how do they do it? Our guest strove to uncover the secrets in their genetic codes. And she got some answers.

Cat and Anastasia chat with Kat Stuart, PhD candidate at UNSW Sydney, about her long and challenging journey to uncover the genetic secrets of starlings and what makes them so successful.

Pint of Science 2022 in Sydney: How do animals deal with climate change?

Australia is among the world leaders of successful organ transplants. However, nearly 2,000 people are on the transplant waiting list at any one time. There are just not enough organs and tissues for everyone who needs them. Wouldn’t it be handy if we could just make organs from scratch? Sounds crazy, but our guest is working on exactly that. Her technique? She prints them! Unfortunately, there is still a long way to go, but science is under way.

Your hosts Dom and Cat chat with our guest Luca Altevogt who is originally from Germany and currently a PhD candidate in chemical engineering at the University of New South Wales in Sydney. And in her PhD, Luca works on printing organs with the help of a 3D printer.
