Hadassah Head speaks with Zach Weinersmith, cartoonist of Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, and his wife Kelly Weinersmith, Ph.D candidate studying parasitology. Together they run The Weekly Weinersmith. We talk about what an ad hoc hypotheses is, the upcoming Bad Ad Hoc Hypotheses Fest, and how Zach came up with the idea. The Festival of Bad Ad Hoc Hypotheses (BAH!) is a celebration of well-argued and thoroughly researched but completely incorrect evolutionary theory.
