Episode 281: Foto-masterclass. IKEA-fail/win. WWU og Ellingvåg om p-pille-tull, crazy cat-ladies og annet viten-vås. Og aspartam gir fortsatt ikke kreft.

Tomprat med Gunnar Tjomlid

I denne episoden får du en oppsummering av min opplevelse av Oslo Masterclass Weekend, et fotokurs jeg var på i Oslo i helgen. Du får også høre om en slitsom IKEA-leveranse som førte til en flott hotellovernatting. Men primært får du høre meg rante i forbannelse over et tyve minutters utdrag av en podcastepisode med Wolfgang Wee og gjest historiker Sturla Ellingvåg som er så fullt av faktafeil (og ekkel mansplaining) at det er smertefullt å lytte til. Til slutt snakker jeg også litt om en ny studie som hevder at kunstige søtningsmidler som aspartam gir kreft. (Hint: Det gjør de ikke.)
