Bizarre behaviour on the beach leads Chris and Jonathan to discuss the merits of vitamin D.

Where exactly in the sun’s rays does this vitamin hide?

Is there a deficiency epidemic?

And can this miraculous vitamin reverse the course of diseases?

Also: a Superman geek fail; putting the “randomized” back in “randomized clinical trials”; why 1 and 2 are dirty numbers; and pot cures epilepsy (sort of… not really).

Vox pop by Thanos Michailopoulos (@ThanocMic on Twitter).

Jingle by Joseph Hackl.

Additional music by Seth Donnelly and Kevin MacLeod.

Theme music: "Troll of the Mountain Swing" by the Underscore Orkestra.
