We're back with a brand new host - the amazing Hana Ayoob!

This week, we talk about the attempted assassination of Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia with the nerve agent Novichok. Why have biohackers started using stem cells to make their genitals better? And why has someone been diagnosed with super gonnorhea (when Oz was so clear about it in Episode 3)?

In our discussion, we talk about the Cambridge Analytica story and how big data might be used to profile people. We download Oz's data to find out exactly what Facebook knows about him (and why his only interest is Jim Al-Khalili).
