Wait wait wait. She's a scientist... antivaxxer? 0.o

Yep I was surprised myself.

Is this even true? Some googling literally shows that she's literally saying the opposite?

Yeah, it sounds like she wrote a parenting book where she said her kids weren’t vaccinated and later said they were vaccinated but not on the same schedule as the typical American child is.

IMO, Ken is the best. He’s personable and funny. When she hosts, it’s so stiff and boring.

Everyone has been saying that forever, I don't know why it took this long

We've now got a version here in the UK hosted by Stephen Fry, he's pretty great.

She never blossomed into the role

I see what you did there.

Mayim Bialik, proof that one can be very intelligent and a fucking idiot at the same time.

She has made antivax statements, rape victim blaming, and sponsored snake oil supplements

I haven't watched since Alex passed away. Now I may go back.

[–] SpaceNoodle 2 points 11 months ago

I haven't watched since the '90s

[–] thessnake03 1 points 11 months ago

Ken's been hosting for a while

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Why did this take so long? Did she have personal connections to the producers or something?

[–] YoBuckStopsHere 2 points 11 months ago

Ken is natural in the role.
