Description: Welcome to episode forty-three! TAMOz, TAM Australia, whatever you want to call it - have an hour of what it's like to be me in Sydney, losing my delusions about what Australian Skeptics are and what it could be. Interviews include: Nicholas and Alex Southhall - Warren Bonett and the Booksellers for Embiggen Books - Simon Singh - Jack Scanlan of the Young Australian Skeptics - Madge Carew-Hopkins the winner of the TAMOz student scholarship - Thom Perry, one of the webdesigners and branding experts for the TAMOz convention - Paul Willis - Simon Taylor - Julian Morrow - Loretta Marron - Peter Ellerton - James Randi - Dr Rob Morrison. We talk about education, the Bent Spoon nomination for ACARA, science communication, popularity, effectiveness, outreach, activism, coffee mornings, not enough sleep, magic, psychology, the best books ever and why blogging does matter. Many thanks to the organisers, everyone who was kind enough to talk to me and to the likes of Brian Dunning  for only standing still long enough around me for one photo. Ah well. Maybe next year I'll be famous enough... :p My sympathies and best wishes to Derek K Miller and his family. This show is available on Zune, mp3 via Libsyn or iTunes.
