About this listen

Dr. Philip C. Plait sets the record straight on many modern hoaxes and myths. Appalled that millions of Americans don't believe in the moon landing, or that an egg stands on its end only on the vernal equinox, Plait hilariously spills the truth and informs us of scientific inaccuracies in our everyday vernacular.

Critic reviews

"Plait succeeds brilliantly because his clear and understandable explanations are convincing and honest." (Library Journal)
