When is a show not a show?

And when is a podcast not a podcast?

When is TWIS not TWIS?

And, when is science not science?

One thing’s for sure, even though it’s just me tonight (Blair) there’s still a show, a podcast, where we’ll discuss science and I look forward to doing that with all of you on,
