								<itunes:subtitle>Will Thompson interviews Kate Russell</itunes:subtitle>
								<itunes:summary><![CDATA[ Kate Russell is a journalist and reporter who, by her own admission, spends far too much time online. For the past decade she has dedicated her life to staying on top of online developments, commenting on the Internet, social media and mobile apps for the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and a frightening number of print and online publications. In that time she has seen a lot of things done well - but less widely reported are the disasters she's witnessed. From monumental social media screw-ups (like the Facebook party invitation that ended in a full-scale riot), to the truth behind how much information you're giving to 'The Man'. This revealing talk is not for the faint-hearted and might make you think twice about how well you know the Internet. ]]></itunes:summary>

								<itunes:summary><![CDATA[ 'Astrobiology' is a brand new field of science, encompassing research into the origins and limits of life on our own planet, and where life might exist beyond the Earth. But what actually is 'life' and how did it emerge on our own world? What are the most extreme conditions terrestrial life can tolerate? And where in the cosmos might we reasonably expect to find ET? ]]></itunes:summary>

								<title>David Colquhoun</title>
								<itunes:subtitle>David Colquhoun's talk from ThinkCon 2011</itunes:subtitle>
								<itunes:summary><![CDATA[ David Colquhoun is a professor of pharmacology at UCL. His research interests are in single ion channels, both experiments and the underlying stochastic theory. He is also interested in pseudo-scientific nonsense, whether it comes from quacks or from university managers. His hope is that we are beginning to emerge from the last 30 or 40 years of endarkenment, during which wishful-thinking has been an adequate substitute for reason. One reason for the resurgence of common sense is that the Internet has changed the world. Now anyone at all can publish their views at the click of a mouse and blogs can get results in the real world. ]]></itunes:summary>

								<itunes:summary><![CDATA[ Sense About Science is a small charity that equips people to make sense of science and evidence. It supports and encourages scientists to speak out in public debates on scientific issues. Sile joined Sense About Science in February 2009 after a career as a stem cell researcher. As Public Liaison, she is concerned with the use of evidence in civic society and she also coordinates the libel reform campaign.
