We’ve all heard it: “Don’t go out without a coat—you’ll catch a cold!” But is there any truth to this classic mom warning, or is it just another myth begging to be debunked?

Joining us is epidemiologist and public health expert Dr. Craig Dalton, who breaks down the difference between a cold and the flu, how these pesky viruses spread, and how you can avoid getting sick (spoiler: it’s not all about bundling up).

We also touch on the viral elephant in the room—Covid—because, well, how could we not?

And here’s the twist: for the first time, we’re shaking up our format! You can listen to our interview with Dr. Dalton (the smart bit) or hear from a couple of idiots (aka Kiel "Glassy" Glass and Sare "Bare" Beins) in The Bare Facts—our hilarious and informative research, now out Wednesdays. True fans will definitely stick around for both, though... right?
