Feminists who married shrimp & an academic who says all babies are “queer”

In this pilot episode of the Citation Needed podcast, Brad Polumbo and Colin Wright dive into two crazy, published, peer-reviewed papers. First, they analyze a bizarre paper where feminists married shrimp and passed it off as research. Then, they examine a less funny and more disturbing paper where one academic tried to argue that babies—yes, babies—are all “queer.”
