EV - 231 Questioning The Placebo Effect with Mike Hall

Embrace The Void - A podcast by Embrace The Void

My guest this week is Mike Hall (@mikehall314), co-host of Skeptics with a K and one of the directors of the UK skeptic magazine. We discuss common misconceptions about the placebo effect, the possibility that it's just an artifact of flawed science, and the implications for things like alternative medicine.
