  • Monday, March 24: Boston Skeptics in the Pub!

    Elyse seems to think that the Chicago Skepchick readers and Friendly Atheists can rock harder than the East Coast. I say we put it to the test: a mere two days after their meet-up, I’ll be hosting the very first Boston Edition of Skeptics in the Pub! The info: WHEN Monday, March 24 2008 7pm WHO Mike the Mad Biologist!…

  • Skeptics’ Circle & The Amateur Scientist Podcast!

    I know that Skepchick is just swimming in good content today, but I wanted to jump in and post two links: 1. The Skeptics’ Circle is up on the Conspiracy Factory. Lots of fantastic stuff organized around a rather Buffy-esque storyline! Thanks to Elyse for keeping the Circle updated on the goings-on here at Skepchick. (Also, did we link to…
