Hey there loyal SD fans! So, the time has finally come, I am going to start the SD podcast and what I'd like from you are suggestions for the kinds of content you'd like to hear in the 'cast.

I plan to focus on science, education, critical thinking and scepticism in SA, with occasional forrays into the international arena. I'm also going to include interviews (if I am lucky enough to land some), book reviews and special guest appearances by other SA sceptics and interested parties.

Do you want to get involved? Let me know what you can bring to the table...
