Meet the hydra: Masters of immortality - Raymond Adkins
Explore the incredible regenerative abilities of hydras, and get to know their biology to find out if they're really immortal. -- In 1740, naturalist Abraham Trembley found something shocking in pondwater. He couldn't tell if it was a plant or an animal, though its way of moving and consuming things seemed animal-like. But when he cut parts off or even split it in two, it regenerated, which was decidedly plant-like. So, what was this miraculous creature? Raymond Adkins explores the near-immortal biology of the hydra. Lesson by Raymond Adkins, directed by Sharon Colman.

Skeptics Guide #1110
The Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe Skepticast #1110 October 15th 2026 Segment #1. Flu Season Segment #2.

Who’s That Noisy Segment #4. Name That Logical Fallacy To be clear, I'm not actually certain if I am the one falling for this fallacy, or if you are. I -am- pretty confident you get a lot of feedback that's a lot worse than where I'm going with this though, so hopefully I can alleviate that concern, alternatively If you'd like to dip out here, yes this is about AI, I get it. Also, I'll just refer to the whole cast collectively, since I don't want to seem to be singling anyone out. To define terms: the 'Goomba Fallacy' is an informal logical fallacy where one conflates two opinions stated by one's opposition, usually online, dismissing them because they contradict, even though they are said by different people. Everyone on the SGU seem to mostly have converged at this point, so I feel safe saying it feels very odd that the opinion now seems to be that it is -both- an incredible tool that everyone should use whenever they like, and the underlying grumbling that this obviously threatens the entire enterprise of getting people to build up their own critical thinking skills. I have a hundred times more arguments against this seeming-contradiction than will fit in this text box, unfortunately, so I'll leave that as an open 'is that contradictory? To advocate for a threat to your own goals?'. Secondly, and this may be -me- being a Goomba. When it's time to end the discussion the line comes out that 'it's not going away', it gets under my skin. Because I feel I'm being made a straw-man, you're conflating all possible arguments against AI with a very simple 'well you can't turn back time'. In a pretty recent episode the panel was discussing the problems with climate change deniers, and that exact idea is one of their very common refrains about why we don't need to do anything about global warming. And like it or not, that's how it comes across when you use the same line, to talk about AI. To deny all possible negative outcomes, and do nothing at all because the genie is out of the bottle.

Science or Fiction Each week our host will come up with three science news items or facts, two genuine, one fictitious. He will challenge our panel of skeptics to sniff out the fake – and you can play along. Item 1: A 75,000 year old Neanderthal fossil shows the first evidence of death by wooden spear. Item 2: A new study finds that if 50% of available marginal agricultural land in the US were dedicated to growing bamboo for feedstock, the resulting biofuel could replace up to half of the current demand for transportation fuel. Item 3: A new analysis finds that 27% of the Earth’s land is under some type of conservation. Segment #7. Skeptical Quote of the Week “The cure for a fallacious argument is a better argument, not the suppression of ideas.” ― Carl Sagan
