Phase Zero - season 4 episode 35: 4 September 2024: Jenna and Jamie are joined by Nicole Drum covering for Aaron being away. Marvel 85th anniversary video includes footage from Daredevil Born Again, Ironheart, Thunderbolts, Captain America Brave New World, and others. New trailers for Agatha All Along as well as other promotional stuff. Set photo of The Thing from Fantastic 4 film. Who is Natasha Leone acting as? Jamie has interviewed actors from Agatha All Along back during D23, but has been under embargo, even to the degree that she can’t mention the first four episodes of the show, which she has seen. A clip of BD chatting with Brad Winterbaum about Nova. When they mention Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica being inspiration for it, I think they would do well to contact Ronald D Moore. Brad said that there will be more special presentations. Jamie and Aaron (as well as BD) went to the Infinity Saga Concert. Jon Watts is unsure if he will return to Marvel filmmaking. Charlie Cox quote about the behind the scenes of Spider-Man No Way Home. Since listening to this I found out that Jamie will not be on the show anymore since she has been dropped by the company Comicbook, which is sad because her excitement for projects is infectious. In fact, I don’t know what’s happening with this show, or who his left working for the company now.

Naked Scientists In Short - 3 August 2015: *Can de-worming really improve school attendance? - A decade ago a landmark study was published showing that treating Kenyan children for worm infections could increase their attendance at school, as well as bringing health benefits. Since then, many development agencies across Africa have taken the idea on board, as it seems like a cheap, effective and simple way to boost attendance. However, researchers at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine have been taking a closer look at the original data, and found that the benefits of de-worming may have been overstated, as Alex Aiken explained to Kat Arney.

I was so surprised though by his language describing his likely November opponent, which I read in a paper I won't name, a two-word term, a participle of concupiscence modifying a word for a common human orifice. Joe, unlike the other guy, is a churchgoer and if my chest had a bazoom, I would clutch it, but it doesn't, not yet. I just wonder, where are we headed?
