How Close Is Doomsday? The Science of Fasting & A Monumental Symbol | RoundUp S5E18

This week on RoundUp, we explore three fascinating stories that connect science, history, and the world around us. How close is humanity to global catastrophe? We break down the meaning of the Doomsday Clock, who sets it, and why scientists use it as a warning about global risks. We then turn to health and human biology, examining the science of fasting – what actually happens inside the body, why people fast, and what research tells us about its effects. Finally, we travel to the United States to uncover the history and symbolism behind one of the world’s most recognisable landmarks, the Washington Monument, and why it remains such an important national symbol.
