The catastrophically low success rate isn’t because more researchers are applying.
No, the *opposite is true*: application numbers are also at historic lows.
Researchers aren’t applying because it’s not worth their time.

I have it on good authority that season 2 starts with @rachelankeny.bsky.social discussing ‘scientific repertoires’ and that it is not to be missed!
Exciting news! We are releasing a final bonus episode for Season 1 tomorrow! Not sure what time exactly as I'm still editing...but it's definitely coming :) (AND Season 2 starts next week)
