    Science funding was hit in 2025. What does that mean for the future?

    December 23, 20254:27 PM ET, 11-Minute Listen Transcript

    2025 was a hard year for science. The Trump administration upended federal funding for all kinds of scientific pursuits, slashing budgets across agencies like NASA, NIH and NOAA. PR’s Rob Stein and Katia Riddle spoke to scientists and officials who worry that those cuts could cause the United States to lose its competitive edge as a global hub for research and innovation, and steer future generations away from careers in science.

  8. I used to get the hiccups all the time. I mean all the time. Not only that, but they were never ending. I tried all the things you’re supposed to try to get your hiccups to stop and nothing ever worked. Nothing. Ever.

    Eventually the problem was solved by the great Bill Nye the Science Guy. He had a video… somewhere… that I watched that said to get your hiccups to stop you have to get your brain to stop waffling between the am-I-breathing and am-I-swallowing states and force it to do one or the other. He said to take a drink, but instead of drinking normally, take five small gulps in quick succession. Gulp-gulp-gulp-gulp-gulp.

    I tried it. Lo and Behold, it worked.

    Oh the gloriousness, it worked.

    Then I had the Gastric Bypass Surgery. Fast forward a little over two years and I was talking about something with my wife and it occurred to me that I had not had the hiccups once since the surgery. Not once. That was lucky, as Bill Nye the Science Guy’s cure would have been tough for me because I couldn’t drink fast anymore. I had to pause between sips, and the sips had to be small. As time continues to pass, that is less and less of an issue. I can’t gulp drinks like I used to, but it is not as difficult as it was in the early post-surgery days.

    Which is lucky, because tonight after dinner… for the first time in two years and almost six months…

    I had the hiccups.

    Bill Nye’s trick still works, thank goodness.

  10. For nearly two decades, Spann used his own blog and long-running podcast to coordinate with Sen. Jim Inhofe’s (R-Okla.) climate-denier aide Marc Morano to attack climate scientists like James Hansen and science communicators like Bill Nye.

  15. So I was doing a nostalgic stream last night on Discord and I forgot how ADHD an episode of #billnye is. Also, #Wishbone would be so much better if it was just the dog.

  16. Watch: Bill Nye rants about highways in 1995 (full segment)

    This is not the first time we’ve posted a Bill Nye video on this site, and I doubt it will be the last. The prolific entertainer and engineer best known for serving on the Seattle Bicycle Advisory Board also had a little-known KCTS science show for children that was widely syndicated and made him a mainstay on TVs throughout the nation.
