  7. (new science programme on Radio4!)
    (... well, it feels renewed ...)
    (still worth shouting at 👍)

    Inside Science 2025-12-11 1630-1700

    Would our ancestors have benefited from early neanderthals making fire?

    BBC Inside Science

    400 thousand years ago our early human cousins dropped a lighter in a field in the East of England; evidence that was uncovered this week and suggests that early neanderthals might have made fire 350 thousand years earlier than we previously thought. Dr Rebecca Wragg Sykes is honorary researcher at the universities of Cambridge and Liverpool and author of Kindred: Neanderthal Life, Love, Death and Art. She explains what this new discovery could mean for our own ancestors.

    Should we genetically modify our farmed salmon to prevent it breeding with their wild relatives? Dr William Perry from Cardiff University thinks this could help the endangered wild Atlantic salmon recover it’s numbers.

    And Lizzie Gibney, Senior Physics Reporter at Nature joins Tom Whipple to dig into the new science released this week.

  8. Is Marnie Chesterton OK?
    Or has the BBC gone stupid?
    I just heard her sign off BBC Inside Science saying that she wasn't going to be doing the programme regularly any more without giving any reason. She has for so long been one of the very best radio voices the BBC have.

  12. BBCInsideScience just did a massive Cricket shit in the middle of what is supposed to be a Science programme. They're going on about Sports statistics.

    presenter Tom Whipple (science writer for the Times newspaper) said "Cricket is the Queen of Science"

  13. Always great to listen to Mi6 come up with a rationale for trophy hunting on a BBC science programme. 👍

  14. In between coughs and sneezes (for lo, I am Ill) I have been drinking copious tea and listening to . During the bit on where they talked about a paper on contagious urination amongst , I desperately needed a piss. I think that means I did a successful , which is why I have written up this important scientific result for publication, here.

  15. Part of reducing carbon emmissions is changing people's eating habits to include less meat.

    One way to accomplish that would be to provide school lunches that have at least 3 vegetarian meals per week.

    That would mean that in this time of rising costs we know that kids are getting fed and have the fuel to learn, but it would also be teaching them an alternative diet and that non-meat options can be just as tasty.

    Idea sparked by listening to #BBCInsideScience

  16. Oceans, iron and ocean biomass restoration.
    How the overall demise of whaling, didn't restore krill populations.
