We want to draw your attention to this wonderful initiative, the Science or Fiction Podcast. The podcast interviews researchers to help distinguish between scientific facts and fiction in news headlines. Each episode is co-produced with young people to ensure the content is both informative and accessible. New episodes are available on the first Monday of every month.

In this special feature episode, friend of the RIOTS Club and producer of The Science or Fiction Podcast, Dr. Kathryn Bates, interviews Fiona Fox, CEO of the Science Media Centre and author of Beyond the Hype: The Inside Story of Science's Biggest Media Controversies to find out how science makes the headlines. They cover how scientists and the media communicate and how we need to adapt in the ever-changing landscape of social media.
