Madeleine Finlay sits down with co-host and science editor Ian
Sample to discuss three eye-catching stories from the week,
including a review into the effectiveness of a new class of
Alzheimer’s drug that was once hailed as a game-changer in slowing
the progress of the disease. Also on the agenda is the news that
the world could be heading for a ‘super El Niño’ this summer and a
study exploring whether conversations about dull topics really are
as boring as we expect them to be. Help support our independent
