How accurate is radiometric dating? Discover shocking problems with radiometric dating methods, wild inconsistencies in rock ages, and why rocks of known age often test as millions or billions of years old. Science Conversations exposes the truth about radiometric dating accuracy with real scientific evidence and critical thinking.
Join host Kaysie Vokurka as she interviews a leading scientist to reveal:
• Why different radiometric dating methods (rubidium-strontium, potassium-argon, lead-lead, samarium-neodymium) produce wildly different ages for the same rock sample.
• Documented cases where rocks of known historical age (like Hawaiian lava flows and Mount St. Helens) are dated as billions of years old.
• How selection bias and “cherry-picking” of results shape the accepted geological timeline.
• Evidence from top institutions (Australian National University, peer-reviewed textbooks) challenging the reliability of radiometric dating.
• The need for a critical reevaluation of dating methods in modern science.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
