Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.) Hosted and produced by award winning science journalist Rose Eveleth, each episode combines audio drama and journalism to go deep on potential tomorrows, and uncovers what those futures might re ...

And why are people feeling good on the carnivore diet? Nutrition and food scientist Dr Emma Beckett takes us through what the evidence says about food categories and ingredients like meat, dairy and salt — and unpick why nutrition studies can be so conflicting and confusing.

This week, we look at some science surrounding those classic sun-shy, horror icons of the night with that little habit for blood: vampires, including a scientist who built a calculator to see how long humanity would last in various vampire outbreak scenarios, the nutritional drawbacks to a blood-only diet, and how fangs might impact your life.
This week's bonus episode is about the science of blood and youth - and using blood to regain youth... To find out more, learn how to support, and take a peek, visit patreon.com/rockettefox.
