Putting our Money Where our Mouth is for Women in Skepticism

TAM London Wrap-up and Audio with Tim Minchin
I think TAM London can be best summed up by the final night, just after I finished The Amaz!ng Panel with George Hrab, Tim Farley, Neil Denny, Andy Lewis, and Martin Robbins. As people were leaving the venue and heading out to the bar, I asked fellow Skepchick Tracy King if I could have the last caramel KitKat at the…

This is sad.
I’ve been thinking a lot about women and skepticism lately, about how we can make things better. You know, more equal and whatnot. There’s something that’s been bothering me for the past few days, ever since registration opened for The Amaz!ng Meeting 6. I considered holding onto it until my talk next Saturday in New York, but I’d rather get…
