You may know of a content creator named Anton Petrov. He seems like a mild-mannered fellow earnestly reporting on science news every single day. But is that really the full story? Yes, it is. Sorry, I can't commit to clickbait. Anton makes great content you should check out after you listen to this conversation we had regarding science communication, various propaganda-peddling charlatans, assorted science topics, and more.
