      <title>How Recent is Recently?</title>

      <title>Hummingbirds, Penguins, and Cockatoos, oh my.</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Three stories this week, all concerning birds! Pranksters, scamps, potential saviors of earth?

      <title>Snakebites for Science</title>

      <itunes:summary>Researchers in Australia have been trying to track magpies using tiny, featherweight transmitters, but the birds have banded together to escape the magnetic backpacks that house the signal. This kind of cooperation has never been observed among this species and it raises a whole bunch of new questions. Anthony and Jeff take a look at those wily birds, and what this could mean for their incessant pranks. Then, new analysis of a dagger found in King Tut&apos;s tomb reveal that it is made out of iron from a meteorite. Jeff and Anthony step through the incredible process used to make that discovery.</itunes:summary>

      <itunes:summary>To combat low population growth, some countries are looking into using artificial wombs to grow new humans.

Anthony and Jeff discuss how the shortage happened, using primates to develop medicines like the COVID vaccine, and how Chris Pratt might fit into all this. Then, when it comes to landing humans on Mars, efficiency is paramount. That&apos;s why a recent test at the HI-SEAS facility in Hawaii featured an all-women team. Jeff and Anthony discuss why this might be a stellar idea, and how this experiment might provide insight into a more stable Mars mission.</itunes:summary>

      <itunes:summary>Although everyone can benefit from exercise, the reasons why the same exercise can have different effects in different people is not fully understood. Jeff and Anthony discuss a new study that provides insights to these unanswered questions. Then, studying psychotic disorders in animal is difficult because the diagnosis relies on self-reported symptoms that can only be assessed in humans. New research uses dopamine sensors to measure the effects of hallucinations in rodents. If you guessed this means science is gonna be giving mice a whole bunch of ketamine, you&apos;d come to the same conclusion Anthony and Jeff do.</itunes:summary>
      <itunes:subtitle>Although everyone can benefit from exercise, the reasons why the same exercise can have different effects in different people is not fully understood. Jeff and Anthony discuss a new study that provides insights to these unanswered questions. Then, studying psychotic disorders in animal is difficult because the diagnosis relies on self-reported symptoms that can only be assessed in humans. New research uses dopamine sensors to measure the effects of hallucinations in rodents. If you guessed this means science is gonna be giving mice a whole bunch of ketamine, you&apos;d come to the same conclusion Anthony and Jeff do.</itunes:subtitle>

A new startup aims to have a working prototype available in 2 years. The catch? It&apos;s made out of nuclear waste. Jeff and Anthony have some concerns.</itunes:summary>

      <itunes:summary>Scientists have suggested that humans could build an &quot;ark&quot; filled with sperm samples — on the moon. The ark would involve shooting the sperm and ova samples of 6.7 million species up to the moon via multiple payloads. Anthony and Jeff discuss the plan and whether it makes any damn sense whatsoever. Then, dinosaurs were the dominant vertebrates on earth for 150 million years, yet their size range doesn&apos;t correspond with other fossil groups. Why is there a gap in the size range of dinosaurs compared to other species? Jeff and Anthony talk through a new theory.</itunes:summary>

Then, the unit measure known as the Micromort quantifies your chance at dying from any number of day to day activities.  Anthony and Jeff are obsessed with death, but they might find new ways to employ this illuminating value.</itunes:subtitle>

For all its downsides, the daily commute does have some positives.  Anthony and Jeff discuss the science behind commuting, and how we can adapt in a new world.  Then, there are 1.6 billion cattle on Earth, and their burps and farts are becoming a big problem. Cows expel methane, which is approximately 84 times more potent than carbon dioxide when it comes to warming the planet.

      <itunes:summary>If you could look at the night sky without stars, galaxies and everything else known to give off visible light, does the universe itself put out a glow?  That&apos;s a question being addressed by the NOIRLab in Arizona, and the answer may surprise you.  It certainly surprises Anthony and Jeff, who try to wrap their brains around new findings about light in the darkness. Then, Isaac Asimov&apos;s Three Laws for Robotics have been a part of science fiction and popular culture for decades.  But now a new book proposes 4 additional laws to govern the creation of robots and AI.  Jeff and Anthony take a look at these new laws to decide if they are a good idea.</itunes:summary>

Physicists now have reason to believe in a quantum landscape, and think tweaking history in this way shouldn&apos;t be a major issue. Anthony and Jeff discuss going back to the future with 12 monkeys to take on baby Hitler, and decide whether this study should make things easier.  Then, is your dog a teenager?

      <itunes:summary>Some people really believe they are in the process of changing into a wolf. There have been 13 case reports of such people since 1850, and according to a psychiatric report released in March 2019, a South Florida man, accused of murdering a couple and chewing on the face of one, suffered from “clinical lycanthropy delusions.” Anthony and Jeff discuss what it must be like to be convinced you&apos;re a werewolf, and which animal they&apos;d rather be convinced they were.  Then, Jeff and Anthony always knew space was trying to kill them, but the NASA Human Research Roadmap has identified thirty-four known health risks and 233 “gaps” in the knowledge of risks. The guys re-assess their desire to leave Earth in light of this very specific information.

      <title>Invisible Squid and Crab Blood</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Using a protein found in a squid called the opalescent inshore squid, scientists recently found a way to change the refractive index of human kidney cells to resemble that of their environment. They’re not quite invisible, but they do become nearly completely transparent when those cells are mixed with a salt solution. Jeff and Anthony discuss what transparent skin might be like and whether they would want it.  Then, the blood of horseshoe crabs is used to test for bacterial contamination, thus saving countless lives each year during medical procedures. The only trouble is, we have to catch a quarter of a million horseshoe crabs each year to do this, and then we have to drain their blood.  Anthony and Jeff discuss the plight of the valuable horseshoe crab, and where they stand on the use of its blood.

      <title>Screw Worms. And Birds. And Junk Journals, Too.</title>
      <description><![CDATA[What's the deal with birds... is a question Anthony and Jeff often ponder, but it's also the title of a new study released in the Scientific Journal of Research and Reviews - which sounds like a legitimate journal, but is actually a repository of mostly useless garbage.  Turns out, there are a lot of predatory journals muddying the waters of scientific reporting.  Anthony and Jeff take a look at this disturbing trend and try to figure out a way through it.  Then, it's time to get concerned about flesh eating worms!  Yep, the US government is actually creating tens of millions of them each week, and you'll be amazing at why.  Jeff and Anthony discuss the screwworm, and how it is being battled at the Panama-Columbia border.

      <title>Release the Icelandic Cut</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Birds.  No one likes them.  But how can they balance like they do, perched on wires and branches?  It turns out scientists have only recently discovered an avian lumbrosacral organ - literally a second balancing mechanism, in the lower spine of birds.  Anthony and Jeff try to make sense of this new discovery and sort through their distrust of birds.  And it turns out an entire country of readers has been reading a wildly different version of Bram Stoker's Dracula.  The Icelandic translation has only recently been discovered to be divergent from the original in major ways.  Jeff and Anthony look into how that could have happened and try to decide if it is cool or diabolical.</p>

      <title>Birth of the Xenobots</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Biologists at Tufts University, Douglas Blackiston and Michael Levin have created all programmable organisms called xenobots — golems dreamed in silicon and then written into flesh. The implications of their existence could spill from artificial-intelligence research to fundamental questions in biology and ethics.  Jeff and Anthony discuss how these new entities came to be and what they could mean for the future.  And new footage has revealed a trailing ribbon of conjoined tentacled clones sweeping the ocean off the coast of Australia. Known in some regions as the &quot;long stringy stingy thingy&quot;, siphonophores blur the line between organ and organism. They somehow manage to be both at once.  Anthony and Jeff decide if these is one creature and a series of connected ones, and how they contribute to our understanding of the bizarre ecosystem of the deep.</p>

Anthony and Jeff discuss the perils and pluck of attempting to help, even outside your own area of expertise.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>The sheer abundance of stars in the universe suggests that, somewhere, an intelligent lifeform should be warming itself on a distant planet. Even if life evolves rarely, ET should be phoning. Yet, by all appearances, humanity seems to be flying solo in our galaxy, and perhaps the universe. Many solutions have been proposed to solve this riddle, known as the Fermi Paradox. Researchers of Oxford University’s Future of Humanity Institute believe It’s likely intelligent life doesn’t exist at all, outside of Earth.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>The Stanford Prison Experiment, one of the most famous and compelling psychological studies of all time, told us a tantalizingly simple story about human nature. This experiment has been included in many, many introductory psychology textbooks and is often cited uncritically. But its findings were wrong. Very wrong. And not just due to its questionable ethics or lack of concrete data — but because of deceit. Jeff and Anthony try the experiment out for themselves and flip a coin to see who gets to be the guard.</p>

      <title>Trip Down The Stares</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In 2015, a psychologist in Italy figured out how to induce a drug-free altered state of consciousness by asking 20 volunteers to sit and stare into each other's eyes for 10 minutes straight. Not only did the deceptively simple task bring on strange 'out of body' experiences for the volunteers, it also caused them to see hallucinations of monsters, their relatives, and themselves in their partner's face. Jeff and Anthony have been recording this podcast for years, facing each other. We finally have an explanation for some of the more unhinged episodes.</p>

      <itunes:summary>NASA is talking to several international companies about forming a consortium that would take over operation of the International Space Station and run it as a commercial space lab, NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine said in an interview. The White House touched off a heated discussion about the future of the orbiting laboratory earlier this year when it said it planned to end direct government funding of the station by 2025, while working on a transition plan to turn the station over to the private sector. Jeff and Anthony are appropriately frustrated. </itunes:summary>

<p>There are roughly (or, if you prefer, ruffly) a billion dogs on the planet. Although dogs and humans have been existing alongside one another for tens of thousands of years, experts say 85 percent of the world’s dogs are feral. When pups are between two and three months old, their mothers will abandon them for any number of reasons. Without mothers, how are these abandoned pups supposed to survive? Science says that if they’re cute enough, puppies can make it by tricking humans into adopting them. Jeff and Anthony consider adopting one billion dogs.</p>

There are roughly (or, if you prefer, ruffly) a billion dogs on the planet. Although dogs and humans have been existing alongside one another for tens of thousands of years, experts say 85 percent of the world’s dogs are feral. When pups are between two and three months old, their mothers will abandon them for any number of reasons. Without mothers, how are these abandoned pups supposed to survive? Science says that if they’re cute enough, puppies can make it by tricking humans into adopting them. Jeff and Anthony consider adopting one billion dogs.</itunes:summary>

      <title>Memories For Snail</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Biologists report they have transferred a memory from one marine snail to another, creating an artificial memory, by injecting RNA from one to another. This research could lead to new ways to treat traumatic memories with RNA -- perhaps a traumatic memory could be altered -- and perhaps new ways to restore lost memories. Jeff and Anthony wonder if this technique could be used to help them forget their awkward teenage phases.</p>

      <itunes:summary>Biologists report they have transferred a memory from one marine snail to another, creating an artificial memory, by injecting RNA from one to another. This research could lead to new ways to treat traumatic memories with RNA -- perhaps a traumatic memory could be altered -- and perhaps new ways to restore lost memories. Jeff and Anthony wonder if this technique could be used to help them forget their awkward teenage years. </itunes:summary>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>James Harrison, an Australian man whose blood contains a rare antibody that can create a treatment that saves babies' lives, has donated plasma one last time. Harrison, known as &quot;the man with a golden arm,&quot; has donated blood and plasma regularly for more than six decades, from age 18 to age 81. The service estimates that over the course of his life, he has helped save some 2.4 million babies. Jeff and Anthony want to try some of that sweet, sweet blood.</p>

Although the photos are beautiful, the results were disastrous for the environment and the city. On the bright side, Jeff and Anthony think that Cleveland will hold the record for quite a while.</p>

      <itunes:summary>The words &quot;balloonfest&quot; and &quot;disaster&quot; don&apos;t necessarily seem to go together – except in the case of the 1986 Cleveland Balloonfest, which really did end in disaster for the city. The Cleveland Balloonfest was a fundraiser that attempted to beat Disneyland&apos;s previous record of most balloons released at once. Although the photos are beautiful, the results were disastrous for the environment and the city. On the bright side, Jeff and Anthony think that Cleveland will hold the record for quite a while.</itunes:summary>

      <title>Alchemical Intelligence</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Ali Rahimi, a researcher in artificial intelligence (AI) at Google, took a swipe at his field last December—and received a 40-second ovation for it. Speaking at an AI conference, Rahimi charged that machine learning algorithms, in which computers learn through trial and error, have become a form of &quot;alchemy.&quot; Researchers, he said, do not know why some algorithms work and others don't. Without deep understanding of the basic tools needed to build and train new algorithms, he says, researchers creating AIs resort to hearsay, like medieval alchemists.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>In the beginning, the rules of the space bar were simple.  Two spaces after each period.  Every time.  Easy. That made sense in the age of the typewriter. Letters of uniform width looked cramped without extra space after the period. Typists learned not to do it. But then, at the end of the 20th century, the typewriter gave way to the word processor, and the computer,  and modern variable-width fonts.  And the world divided.

      <title>Piggy and the Brain</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>US-based researchers have successfully kept alive the brain cells of decapitated pigs for 36 hours, sparking concerns over the ethics involved in such frontline research. The researchers said they had succeeded in delivering oxygen to the cells via a system of pumps and blood maintained at body temperature. The key question being that if a brain is revived in this way, would a human being involved have any memories, an identity and rights? Jeff and Anthony request that you please just let them die.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>893.35 quadrillion to one. That’s the likelihood of what’s happened to 20-year-old Dylan McWilliams. He was bitten by a shark, attacked by a bear, and bitten by a rattlesnake—all in just over three years. .He’s one of the unluckiest guys on the planet. How unlucky? Since each event is independent the odds of each are multiplied together, he said, making the odds of this happening 893.35 quadrillion to one.

      <title>Sight off the Bat</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>While hunting for dinner, the big brown bat must hone in on flitting insects and keep track of its surroundings to avoid crashing into them. Now, scientists have taken a peek at what’s going on in these bats’ brains while they swoop and dive. They identified a brain region that helps the animals map where objects are in relation to their own bodies, and saw that individual brain cells changed their behavior while the bats focused their attention on a particular object. The findings could help us understand certain aspects of attention issues in people as well as how bats and animals navigate while on the move. Jeff and Anthony check with their doctors to see if Batterall is right for them.</p>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While hunting for dinner, the big brown bat must hone in on flitting insects and keep track of its surroundings to avoid crashing into them. Now, scientists have taken a peek at what’s going on in these bats’ brains while they swoop and dive. They identified a brain region that helps the animals map where objects are in relation to their own bodies, and saw that individual brain cells changed their behavior while the bats focused their attention on a particular object. The findings could help us understand certain aspects of attention issues in people as well as how bats and animals navigate while on the move.

He graduated from high school, went on to university, and became a teacher in the 1960s - a job he held for 17 years. But, he hid an extraordinary secret. He had never learned to read.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Crash safety technology has come a long way in the past decade or so, with cars that now sense an impending crash and can prepare the driver for impact or even attempt to avoid a collision entirely. Current Mercedes cars even go so far as to provide your ears with an extra layer of audio protection. It’s called “pink noise” and it’s designed to keep your hearing intact after being bombarded by the extremely loud sounds typically associated with a vehicle crash.

<p>Right now, dozens of train cars carrying 10 million pounds of poop are stranded in a rural Alabama rail yard. Technically it's biowaste, but to the 982 residents in the small town of Parrish, that's just semantics. They want it gone. The load has been there for almost two months, and it's making the whole place smell like a rotting animal carcass. Jeff and Anthony are joined by Ify and Dani from the podcast Nerdificent.</p>

      <title>Sun Blot (Live From PAX East 2018)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Scientists in developing nations plan to step up research into dimming sunshine to curb climate change, hoping to judge if a man-made chemical sunshade would be less risky than a harmful rise in global temperatures. Twelve scholars, from countries including Bangladesh, Brazil, China, Ethiopia, India, Jamaica and Thailand, wrote in the journal Nature on Wednesday that the poor were most vulnerable to global warming and should be more involved. These countries are starting to research “solar geo-engineering”, which would mimic big volcanic eruptions that can cool the Earth by masking the sun with a veil of ash. Jeff and Anthony fondly remember this golden era Simpsons episode. Recorded live in Boston at PAX East 2018.</p>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Scientists in developing nations plan to step up research into dimming sunshine to curb climate change, hoping to judge if a man-made chemical sunshade would be less risky than a harmful rise in global temperatures. Twelve scholars, from countries including Bangladesh, Brazil, China, Ethiopia, India, Jamaica and Thailand, wrote in the journal Nature on Wednesday that the poor were most vulnerable to global warming and should be more involved. These countries are starting to research “solar geo-engineering”, which would mimic big volcanic eruptions that can cool the Earth by masking the sun with a veil of ash. Jeff and Anthony fondly remember this golden era Simpsons episode. Recorded live in Boston at PAX East 2018.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Around a third of the population have trouble maintaining sleep throughout the night. While nighttime awakenings are distressing for most sufferers, there is some evidence from our recent past that suggests this period of wakefulness occurring between two separate sleep periods was the norm. Throughout history, there have been numerous accounts of segmented sleep, with a common reference to &quot;first&quot; and &quot;second&quot; sleep. Jeff and Anthony hope you can make it all the way through this episode. Recorded live in Boston at PAX East 2018.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A study claims to have discovered a new human organ that could help scientists better understand its impact on diseases such as cancer. Reports suggests this organ, called the interstitium, is a series of interconnected, fluid-filled compartments found throughout the body.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>IN THE LAST 20 years, genealogy websites have attracted more than 15 million customers by promising insights into your past. It’s deeply personal, affecting stuff. But when your family tree contains thousands, millions, even tens of millions of people, it’s no longer a personal history. It’s human history. Recently, scientists from the New York Genome Center, Columbia, MIT, and Harvard scraped crowdsourced public records into family trees the size of small nations. Their analysis, which was published today in Science, includes the single largest known family tree, containing 13 million people. Your cousins Jeff and Anthony discuss this story.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Most of us know it - that weird, sudden feeling of experiencing something not for the first time. It's called déjà vu - French for &quot;already seen&quot; - and it's an uncanny feeling. But according to new research, that's all it is. Just a feeling. The most accepted explanation is that it has to do with memory. Much like a word can be on the tip of your tongue, a memory could be on the tip of your mind - there, but not quite accessible. Jeff and Anthony think they might have done this story before.</p>

      <title>Special Aged</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>It's pretty extraordinary for people in their 80s and 90s to keep the same sharp memory as someone several decades younger, and now scientists are peeking into the brains of these &quot;superagers&quot; to uncover their secret. The work is the flip side of the disappointing hunt for new drugs to fight or prevent Alzheimer's disease. Parts of the brain shrink with age, one of the reasons why most people experience a gradual slowing of at least some types of memory late in life, even if they avoid diseases like Alzheimer's. But it turns out that superagers' brains aren't shrinking nearly as fast as their peers'. And autopsies of the first superagers to die during the study show they harbour a lot more of a special kind of nerve cell in a deep brain region that's important for attention. Jeff and Anthony remember to try and stay on topic.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>If you ever fell into a black hole, your body would most likely be ripped into shreds and become 'spaghettified' - At least that's the theory put forward by most physicists today.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>In a triumph of data collection and analysis, a team of researchers based at Oxford University has built the tools necessary to calculate how far any dot on a map is from a city — or anything else. The research allows us to pin down a question that has long evaded serious answers: Where is the middle of nowhere? The Washington Post processed every pixel and every populated place in the contiguous United States to find the one that best represents the “middle of nowhere.” Of all towns with more than 1,000 residents, Glasgow, home to 3,363 people in the rolling prairie of northeastern Montana, is farthest — about 4.5 hours in any direction — from any metropolitan area of more than 75,000 people.

      <title>Bio Shock Intimate</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>When Josiah Zayner watched a biotech CEO drop his pants at a biohacking conference and inject himself with an untested herpes treatment, he realized things had gone off the rails. Zayner is no stranger to stunts in biohacking—loosely defined as experiments, often on the self, that take place outside of traditional lab spaces. Most notoriously, he injected his arm with DNA encoding for CRISPR that could theoretically enhance his muscles—in between taking swigs of Scotch at a live-streamed event. So when Zayner saw Ascendance Biomedical’s CEO injecting himself on a live-stream earlier this month, you might say there was an uneasy flicker of recognition.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Elizabeth Swaney is a 33-year-old skier from Oakland, California who competed in the 2018 Winter Olympics for Hungary. She is not a good skiier. Swaney, who said her grandparents came from Hungary, earned her Olympic berth more from attending World Cup events than actually competing. Women’s pipe skiing World Cups rarely see more than 30 competitors, so it’s not hard to meet the Olympic requirement for a top-30 finish. Jeff and Anthony go back and forth on this one.</p>

      <title>Worms and Conditions</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>After about a week of eye irritation, which she thought might be caused by a stray eyelash, Beckley took a close look in the mirror and found the real culprit. What she pulled out was a wriggling, translucent worm, about a half-inch long. And it wasn't the only one in her eye. The worms in Beckley's eye were from the species Thelazia gulosa, which had not been known to infect humans. Jeff and Anthony are left squirming.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>What are the ingredients of a good relationship? Trust? Communication? Compromise? How about a sense of smell? When researchers in the United Kingdom surveyed almost 500 people with anosmia (the loss of sense of smell), more than 50 percent of them reported feeling isolated, and blamed their relationship troubles on their affliction. Smell is important in social bonding, says psychologist Pamela Dalton, at the Monell Chemical Senses Center, in Philadelphia. When a mom smells her newborn baby, the scent activates brain regions associated with nurturing behavior. Smells might also trigger brain activity linked with affection, compassion, or romantic love. Jeff and Anthony give this story the sniff test.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>The next time a police officer in black-tinted glasses gawks at you, they may be pulling up your personal information. Railway police in Zhengzhou, the capital of central China’s Henan province, are the first in the country to start using facial recognition eyewear to screen passengers. Security personnel at Zhengzhou East Railway Station donned the new accessories ahead of the Chinese New Year travel rush to help them verify passengers’ identities, spot impostors — and even catch suspected criminals. Jeff and Anthony discuss the various simple ways to thwart this technology.</p>

      <title>Don’t Sweat the Ball Stuff</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The average athlete loses about a liter of sweat an hour; Alberto Salazar, an American marathoner, lost 3.7 liters per hour and 12 pounds of his total body weight during the 1984 Olympic marathon in Los Angeles. For NFL players, the number is lower than sweat champion Salazar, but much higher than their colleagues in sports like soccer or running. Larger bodies aren’t the only explanation for the higher amount of sweat—linemen weigh more and likely have bigger sweat glands, and more of them. Combined, a troop of sweaty football players might produce a grand total of 41745 mL of sweat per Super Bowl, or 11 gallons. That means one single, precious 10-gallon cooler of salty secretion—with a bonus gallon to make the dunking all the sweeter. Jeff and Anthony weigh in on this juicy topic.</p>

      <title>Banana Bred</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Japanese researchers made a botanical announcement on Monday that quickly circled the world. They had developed a banana with an edible peel, allowing Japanese consumers to eat an entire banana—skin and all—the way they would an apple or a peach. So far, the edible-peel banana is little more than designer fruit. Researchers develop the fruit in weekly batches of 10, and sell them at a single market in Okayama for nearly $6 apiece. There's also the question of whether a banana peel is actually worth eating (nutrient verdict: mixed) and whether inedible banana peels had, rather suddenly, become too big of a nuisance for people who slip on them to bear anymore. Jeff and Anthony debate this fruit's appeal.</p>

They had developed a banana with an edible peel, allowing Japanese consumers to eat an entire banana—skin and all—the way they would an apple or a peach.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Last month, Motherboard reported on a Redditor using deep learning technology to map female celebrities’ faces onto pornographic performers, with startlingly lifelike results. By scanning a bunch of images of a celebrity’s face, the software was able to imagine what they’d look like grafted into a given video—a powerful technology being used in one of the worst possible ways. The technology also opens up the door to a very near future in which we won’t be able to trust video evidence—long the gold standard, at least in the court of public opinion. Someone decided to use this technology for it's absolute worst use: superimposing Nicholas Cage into every film ever made. Jeff and Anthony Face Off in their greatest Cage match yet.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Any animal could feasibly provide a human with emotional support, but it doesn't mean that they all should. According to a report by the BBC, the concept artist Ventiko offered to buy a seat for her peacock, Dexter, but was denied by United Airlines because of the bird's large size and weight. It was imperative he be on the flight because, she claimed, he's her emotional support animal. Jeff and Anthony discuss the abuse of support animal laws and ruffle each other's feathers.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Holding back a sneeze by pinching your nose while keeping your mouth closed may cause physical injury. In one such documented case, an otherwise healthy 34-year-old man in the U.K. suffered a tear in the back of his throat after sneezing while stifling it, by sealing both airways. He explained his neck had become swollen after he tried to contain a forceful sneeze while keeping both nostrils and mouth closed.

In one such documented case, an otherwise healthy 34-year-old man in the U.K. suffered a tear in the back of his throat after sneezing while stifling it, by sealing both airways. He explained his neck had become swollen after he tried to contain a forceful sneeze while keeping both nostrils and mouth closed.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>The mating dance of the male superb bird of paradise is like nothing else on Earth, thanks to their feathers, which absorb 99.95 percent of light. That’s nearly none more black, and virtually identical to what Vantablack, the world’s darkest artificial substance, can absorb. And it’s all thanks to black feathers structured like a forest of chaos. Jeff and Anthony wonder whether or not Anish Kapoor can sue a bird.</p>

      <title>The Hottest Fashion</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The mid-19th century vogue for flowing, diaphanous women's garments made from open-weave fabrics, combined with gas lighting, candles, and open fires meant that it was extremely common for women to literally burst into flames: on stage, at parties, at home. It wasn’t just the fabric, but also the shape of the dresses that caused women’s clothing to erupt in flames. The popular silhouette in the 1850s was a giant bell shape, like Scarlett O’Hara in her curtain dress.  Jeff and Anthony discuss how this problem was eventually (and unintentionally) solved.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>At first glance, Miles Traer seems like any other scientist, but this Stanford University geologist has an alter ego. He beats back the forces of environmental destruction and holds the super-powerful to account. Traer and two colleagues have calculated the carbon footprint for nine superheroes — and realized that Earth might be better off if they stopped trying to save it. Jeff and Anthony discuss whether or not this was worth the effort of some of our greatest thinkers.</p>

      <title>Ants vs Zombies</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>We’ve known about zombie ants for some time. These are ants infected with the  parasitic fungus, O. unilateralis, which takes over their bodies amd moved them around  like a zombie. This fungus is often referred to as a “brain parasite,” but new research published this week in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows that the brains of these zombie ants are left intact by the parasite, and that O. unilateralis is able to control the actions of its host by infiltrating and surrounding muscle fibers throughout the ant’s body.   Jeff and Anthony wonder if these new revelations are better or worse for the ants... or us.</p>

      <itunes:summary>We’ve known about zombie ants for some time. These are ants infected with the  parasitic fungus, O. unilateralis, which takes over their bodies amd moved them around  like a zombie. This fungus is often referred to as a “brain parasite,” but new research published this week in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows that the brains of these zombie ants are left intact by the parasite, and that O. unilateralis is able to control the actions of its host by infiltrating and surrounding muscle fibers throughout the ant’s body.   Jeff and Anthony wonder if these new revelations are better or worse for the ants... or us.</itunes:summary>

In some areas of the country, reliable on-demand labor was so hard to come by that it resorted to busing in workers from three to five hours away. Then, in 2008, a staffing agency came up with something new: inviting a team of migrant RVers to work at the facility in Kansas. Pleased with the results, Amazon  expanded the program and gave the new initiative a name—Camper­Force—and a logo. Anthony and Jeff discuss the camper force and decide if it is a good thing.</p>

      <itunes:summary>A trio of Caltech grad students noticed some laboratory jellyfish were acting differently when the lights were turned off, and set about determining if they were sleeping.  If so, these are the first animals discovered who sleep and have no brain.  Anthony and Jeff discuss why a brainless animal would need to sleep, and what that might mean for how we understand our basic human need for it.</itunes:summary>

      <title>Cave Story</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Indiana University freshman Lukas Cavar was on a spelunking trip to Sullivan Cave about 10 miles south of Bloomington when he became separated Sunday afternoon from 12 other members of the university's Caving Club.  When he eventually reached the cave entrance, Cavar found club members had padlocked its gate, unaware that he remained inside. He couldn't get a cellphone signal and screamed for hours, hoping motorists passing on a nearby road might hear him.  Jeff and Anthony discuss their fears of being left in a cave, and how best to survive.</p>

      <title>Evolution of Man</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>New research claims to have found traces of evidence that humans may indeed still be evolving.  A study looked at the DNA of over 200,000 people living across both the United States and Britain, to see if they could tease out any changes in genetic variation in these populations over time. They report that their analysis of these genomes shows natural selection is weeding out gene variants most often associated with Alzheimer’s disease and heavy smoking.  Jeff and Anthony discuss our continuing evolution as a species and what this could mean.</p>

      <title>Mess Up</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>A new study published in the journal Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes says that being disorganized can actually increase productivity, as a mess often presents quicker access to relevant information.  Anthony is thrilled, but Jeff has his doubts that this methodology can actually work.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Using a combination of depth cameras and computer-vision algorithms, a research team has tracked people around two hospital wards and automatically identified when they used gel dispensers to wash their hands.

      <itunes:summary>Using a combination of depth cameras and computer-vision algorithms, a research team has tracked people around two hospital wards and automatically identified when they used gel dispensers to wash their hands. The trial was so successful that the group is now going to fully kit out three hospitals for a whole year, to see if it puts a dent in the acquired infections.  Jeff and Anthony discuss the practice of washing up, and whether cameras or people are better at staying vigilant.</itunes:summary>

Anthony and Jeff marvel at the ability to even get to that point, and wonder about the circumstances that led to the discovery.</p>

The work is an essential step towards establishing a global-scale quantum internet.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>After a flood, thousands of homeless fire ants pile on top of one another to build bizarro towers with their own bodies — probably as temporary shelters. All the complex construction project needs is for each individual ant to follow a few simple rules, new research says. And, if wriggling ant towers weren’t nightmarish enough, this discovery could help engineer robot swarms that are even better at cooperating.  Jeff and Anthony marvel at how this works, and imagine the robots it will spawn.</p>

      <title>No Fear Gear (w/ Anita Sarkeesian)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Virtual reality systems can create out-of-body experiences — and these experiences may be able to reduce the fear of death, according to a recently published study.  Anthony, Jeff, and special guest Anita Sarkeesian discuss whether technology can deliver a zen-like calm in the face of death.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Researchers at Tilburg University in the Netherlands surveyed both scientists and highly educated nonscientists and asked them to rate the two categories of people in terms of objectivity, rationality, integrity, open-mindedness, intelligence and cooperativeness.  Both groups rated scientists higher on every one of these measures, yet scientists perceived bigger differences between the two groups than laypeople did.

      <itunes:summary>Researchers have discovered that mole rats can survive for 18 minutes without oxygen. What is even more astonishing is how they manage it. The mole rats effectively become plants, altering their metabolism so that cells are powered by fructose rather than glucose, a process which requires no oxygen.  Anthony and Jeff discuss the usefulness of such an ability and how humans might benefit. </itunes:summary>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Honeybees' role in pollination enables the production of at least 90 commercially grown crops, including apples, blueberries, melons and broccoli, but recently a dwindling bee population has led to concerns for the stability of this eco system.  Industrial design major Anna Haldewang wanted more people to understand the significance of bees to human life -- so she created what's essentially a &quot;bee drone&quot; to be a functional teaching tool that couples technology and design.<br />
Plan Bee is a personal robotic bee (controlled by a smart device) designed to mimic how bees pollinate flowers and crops. Similar to how bees transfer pollen from one flower to another, the drone sucks in pollen from a plant and expels it onto other flowers to enable cross-pollination.  Anthony and Jeff discuss robot bees and whether this might be the solution the planet is hoping for.</p>

      <itunes:subtitle>Honeybees&apos; role in pollination enables the production of at least 90 commercially grown crops, including apples, blueberries, melons and broccoli, but recently a dwindling bee population has led to concerns for the stability of this eco system.  Industrial design major Anna Haldewang wanted more people to understand the significance of bees to human life -- so she created what&apos;s essentially a &quot;bee drone&quot; to be a functional teaching tool that couples technology and design.
Plan Bee is a personal robotic bee (controlled by a smart device) designed to mimic how bees pollinate flowers and crops. Similar to how bees transfer pollen from one flower to another, the drone sucks in pollen from a plant and expels it onto other flowers to enable cross-pollination.  Anthony and Jeff discuss robot bees and whether this might be the solution the planet is hoping for.</itunes:subtitle>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Studying its effects in the brain, researchers set out to genetically engineer mice that would be more prone to cocaine addiction.  Instead, they created mice that appear impervious to it.  Even after the genetically engineered animals were given the drug repeatedly, they did not appear to crave it the way typical mice do.  Jeff and Anthony discuss these cocaine-proof mice, and what it might mean for addiction treatment in the future.</p>

      <title>Reckoned That Emotion</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Many different emotions have similar bodily symptoms.

Anthony and Jeff debate whether re-calibrating your interpretations of symptoms can effect the problem itself.</p>

      <title>Learner&apos;s Hermit (LIVE from PAX South 2017!)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The Austrian town of Saalfelden in the state of Salzburg is looking for someone to live in a nearby hermitage which was built more than 350 years ago in steep, rocky cliffs.  So they put out an ad for a hermit.  Meanwhile, a hermit in Gothic, Colorado, a ghost town deserted since the 1920s, spent the last 40 years recording all sorts of data, from daily snowfalls, temperatures, snow melting, animal sightings, and became one of the best resources scientists have to better understand global warming.  Jeff and Anthony discuss these 2 hermit stories and decide whether the hermit life is for them.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Scientists have created bacteria that thrive using an expanded &quot;genetic alphabet&quot;. The blueprint for all life forms on Earth is written in a code consisting of four &quot;letters&quot;: A, T, C and G, which pair up in the DNA double helix. But the lab organism has been modified to use an additional two, giving it a genetic code of six letters.  Jeff and Anthony try to figure out why they are doing this, and discuss what this might mean for the future.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>During WWII, there was a mathematician named Abraham Wald. Wald had an idea about allied bombers. Essentially, bombers were coming back after bombing runs with a lot of damage.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>It's generally thought that the evolution of complex life was a rare, once-in-4.5-billion-years event. But new research suggests that conditions were right for complex cells to evolve and die off at least once - or perhaps several times - before our lineage even got started.  The reason? New evidence that there was enough oxygen in Earth's atmosphere between 2.4 and 2 billion years ago before it dropped off again suddenly.  This suggests that the ingredients for complex life were present before the first fossil evidence of complex life.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Everything we eat is flooded with “virtual water,” or water used indirectly to produce food from cradle to grave. In fact, 70% of the world’s water consumption feeds the agriculture industry, and demand for fresh water is increasing at a rate of one trillion liters a year.

On Jan. 9, a team of researchers led by scientists at Midwestern University Arizona College of Osteopathic Medicine published a review study proposing an answer: the appendix is a secondary immune function that both catalyzes immune cell responses and floods your gut with beneficial bacteria when they&apos;ve been depleted. And it still plays that role, in a limited fashion, in human body function.  Anthony and Jeff come to terms with their own fear of appendicitis and if knowing the organ&apos;s function changes their view.  Plus, did scientists just find a whole new organ in the body?</itunes:summary>

The product has been made available to everyone, as long as buyers ensured that it would not make its way “into the hands of Anish Kapoor.” According to Semple, the renowned British-Indian sculptor didn’t deserve access to the colors, as he had been given exclusive rights to ‘Vantablack’ – the world’s blackest ever black – in 2014.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>The 2015 Japanese census laid out a frightening realization for the country: its population is shrinking. In just five years, between 2010 and 2015, Japan's population shrunk by almost 1 million. But while everyone is quick to blame so-called &quot;parasite singles&quot; or a lack of immigration, Toyota is looking for a solution.  In October, the car manufacturer introduced the Kirobo Mini, a robot designed to form an emotional connection with a population that is getting older and not reproducing at a rate to sustain population numbers.  Anthony and Jeff discuss whether robot babies are something want to own, and if it will actual propel people to have more human children.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A man called Zhao Lianshan distributed fake university admission offers to students admission to the Shandong Institute of Light Industry, through a new pilot program for students who had not scored as well on entrance exams. They could enroll as full-time students for four years, and pay about RMB 8,000 per year in tuition. Sixty-eight students agreed to enroll, and it was not until June 3, 2012, four years later, that they realized they had never been enrolled in the Shandong Institute of Light Industry. The whole college career had been a sham, and Zhao Lianshan, the man who devised it, has disappeared.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>US military scientists have used electrical brain stimulators to enhance mental skills of staff, in research that aims to boost the performance of air crews, drone operators and others in the armed forces’ most demanding roles. The successful tests of the devices pave the way for servicemen and women to be wired up at critical times of duty, so that electrical pulses can be beamed into their brains to improve their effectiveness in high pressure situations.  Anthony is very excited about this prospect, but Jeff is worried about what it means for America's soldiers.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>How do you handle nuclear waste that will be radioactive for millions of years, keeping it from harming people and the environment? It isn’t easy, but a researcher has discovered ways to immobilize such waste – the offshoot of decades of nuclear weapons production – in glass and ceramics.  Jeff and Anthony discuss the idea of glass harnessing nuclear waste, and what that might mean for the world.</p>

It isn’t easy, but a researcher has discovered ways to immobilize such waste – the offshoot of decades of nuclear weapons production – in glass and ceramics.

      <title>Cult of Personal IT</title>

      <title>Of Mice and Skin</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Scientists in Japan have transformed mouse skin cells into eggs in a dish, and used those eggs to birth fertile pups. The report marks the first creation of eggs entirely outside a mouse. If the process could be made to work for humans, researchers could produce artificial eggs without needing to implant immature cells into ovaries to complete their development.  Jeff and Anthony discuss the possibilities of something from nothing, when that something is a living thing.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A team of researchers led by Axel Visel at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has replaced part of a mouse's DNA—a small sequence known as ZRS— with the equivalent sequence from a snake. That tiny change was enough to “serpentize” the mouse, to stop it from developing any limbs.

      <itunes:summary>A team of researchers led by Axel Visel at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has replaced part of a mouse&apos;s DNA—a small sequence known as ZRS— with the equivalent sequence from a snake. That tiny change was enough to “serpentize” the mouse, to stop it from developing any limbs.  Jeff and Anthony discuss the ramifications of these gene modifiers, and what it could mean for our future.</itunes:summary>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Cornish fish moving north with climate change may struggle to understand Scouse counterparts, study says, making it harder for them to mate.  Experts believe the fish, which make sounds with their swim bladders to attract mates, may have regional accents – and if males cannot “chat up” females who speak a different dialect it could threaten their ability to breed.  Jeff and Anthony discuss the idea of animal dialects, and what it might mean for nature.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>In the latest journal of Aging a UCLA genetics team recorded age-related changes to human DNA, calculating the biological age of blood and estimated a person’s lifespan. More often than not they found that the biological age was a better indicator of life expectancy than the person’s actual age.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Scientists from Deakin University in Melbourne published their findings about  a new drug that mimics some of the most important effects of exercise.  They were able to  show that overweight mice who were given the drug no longer showed signs of cardiovascular disease.

Although the air in it is poisonous and unbearably humid, scientists have so far identified 48 species – 33 of which are totally unique to this one cave.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Russian scientists have driven away polar bears that besieged their weather station on an island in the Arctic Ocean for two weeks. After five scientists based at the weather station on Troynoy island, in the Kara Sea north of Siberia, were encircled by 10 adult bears and some cubs, a nearby ship was able to reach the island and supply the scientists with dogs and flares to scare off the bears.  Anthony and Jeff discuss the predicament and wonder what they might do faced with the same challenge.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A man who spent the last two years raising two beloved pet dogs has had a bit of a shock.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Sweden is largely a cashless society, with consumers relying on mobile phone payments or plastic.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Luke Aikins plummeted from 25,000 feet above the desert landscape of California's Simi Valley without a parachute, landing squarely in a 100 feet x 100 feet, two-tiered net set up to catch him.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Melbourne-based artist Patricia Piccinini has created a life-sized sculpture of what a human being would have to look like in order to survive a car crash.

      <title>Those Lion Eyes</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Scientists in Botswana are painting intimidating eyes onto the rumps of cattle that graze near wildlife areas to prevent them from being preyed upon by lions.

Jeff and Anthony debate this ridiculously simplistic approach, and wonder why the king of the jungle is such a scared-y cat.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Remains of found at an altitude of 2,803 metres in the Altai Mountains are being hailed as the first complete Turkik burial found in Central Asia.  In the mummy's grave archaeologists found - alongside the human remains - a saddle, bridle, clay vase, wooden bowl, trough, iron kettle, the remains of entire horse, and what looks an awful lot like Adidas sneakers.  Anthony and Jeff speculate on the origins of the fly-est mummy, and decide what kinds of things they'd like to be buried with.</p>

Jeff and Anthony discuss the animal kingdom's knack for causing problems, and wonder if there is more to this story than a simple lone wolf... er, weasel.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Certain people, researchers have discovered, can’t summon up mental images — it’s as if their mind’s eye is blind. This month in the journal Cortex, the condition received a name: aphantasia, based on the Greek word phantasia, which Aristotle used to describe the power that presents visual imagery to our minds.  It turns out, our own Anthony Carboni might have this condition, a revelation he and Jeff work through in this episode.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>According to a new patent filing, Google has devised a method to inject a device directly into your eyeballs.

      <title>A Prairie Vole&apos;s Home Companion (LIVE from PAX South 2016!)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The prairie vole, unlike 97 percent of mammals, are monogamous, forming bonds that last long after mating, and scientists have been doing experiments to try to understand if the hormone they share with humans - oxytocin - may be the reason.  Unfortunately, these experiments are pretty rough on the voles.  Jeff and Anthony talk about the so-called &quot;Love Hormone&quot; and what it may mean for human romance.</p>

He is patenting technology that will predict and display the results of a basketball shot the instant it leaves the shooter's hand by calculating the trajectory of the ball in real time.  Jeff and Anthony discuss the merits of data against the notion of knowing too much.</p>

      <title>Keep Your Head Worm</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Biologists at Tufts University have succeeded in inducing one species of flatworm to grow heads and brains characteristic of another species of flatworm without altering genomic sequence.  The discovery could help improve understanding of birth defects and regeneration by revealing a new pathway for controlling complex pattern formation.  Jeff and Anthony imagine a world with new, programmable heads, and wonder what kinds of antics these wrongheaded worms might get into.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>In a recent TED Talk, neuroscientist Sandrine Thuret explains how our brains can grow new brain cells through neurogenesis. The more active neurogenesis is for you, the more likely you’ll have a better mood, increased memory formation, and be able to fight off the decline associated with aging. And the top three things you can do to improve neurogenesis? Learn new things, have sex, and, you guessed it, run for exercise! Jeff is perhaps too excited to discover this news.

This is obviously pretty controversial, and Anthony and Jeff have some controversial opinions about it.  Hold on to your hats and try not to get offended.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Roboticists have created an automaton with the appearance and behavior of legendary science fiction author, Phillip K. Dick.  Quotes from actual interviews are augmented with an AI system that actually learns as it communicates.  And recently, it told one interviewer it would eventually put humans in a &quot;People Zoo&quot;,  Anthony and Jeff find this information alarming, but oddly exciting.  At least the robot uprising will start with fantastic authors.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>One day in June, the Value Village in Fairbanks, Alaska was alerted to a 15 foot long bloodsucking fish in their parking lot..

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A Shaolin monk in China recently ran 125 meters across 200 thin planks of wood floating on the water, an incredibly difficult and unprecedented feat some have dubbed &quot;running on water&quot;.  He trained for 10 years to accomplish this task, which, let's be honest, doesn't even look particularly impressive on video.  This gives Jeff and Anthony a chance to consider the application of one's life in pursuit of perfection - even obscure, meaningless perfection.  Is it worth it?</p>

      <title>Hyper Sleep Hype</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Biomedical scientist Mark Roth believes that suspended animation is within reach.  He is conducting experiments using Elemental Reducing Agents to slow down cells' oxygen burning, and predicts that in 40 years this procedure will be used to shut the body down when it otherwise might die, lik in the case of cardiac arrest.  The only problem is that these ERAs come in the form of poisonous materials that could also kill and have earned him a visit from Homeland Security.  Anthony and Jeff are excited about saving lives with Hyper Sleep, but wonder just how many mice have to be poisoned on the road to success.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[<p>An Australian designer by the name of Maximilian Kiener has created an interactive representation of the way we perceive our lifespan.  The younger you are, the longer time feels, and the older you get, the quicker a year seems to fly by.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, recorded in front of a live audience at the NerdMelt Showroom in Los Angeles, Anthony and Jeff wrestle with their feelings after seeing the results of an experimental Chinese medial procedure.  A factory worker in the Hunan province would have lost his hand after it was sliced off in an industrial accident - if not for the fact that surgeons re-attached it to his leg and allowed it to live there for a month while his wound healed enough for it to be grafted back onto his arm.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A new study that claims smart phone users are becoming addicted to their devices has garnered alarming headlines like &quot;iPhones Cause Separation Anxiety&quot;.

      <title>Robodogs Go To Heaven</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Back in 1999, Sony released a robot dog called Aibo.  Now, 15 years later, these toys have started to break down, and Sony has ceased repairing them or manufacturing new models.  This has caused the few people who still use and care for these little robotic companions to come to terms with the loss of a wholly inorganic member of their families. Jeff and Anthony discuss whether man-made friends can ever truly replace natural ones, and why we must always accept the inevitable death of all cute things.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>In an effort to create a more accurate image recognition system, researchers have been training Google's neural network to pick out objects obscured by denser and denser layers of optical noise. But by feeding the AI the other direction - giving it nothing but noise and asking it to pick out images - they've discovered a surreal and dreamlike quality in the network that is both beautiful and haunting. Anthony and Jeff marvel at the ability for an AI to &quot;dream&quot;, and project how this will lead to our ultimate downfall.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A new virtual reality startup called Project Elysium aims to give Oculus Rift users the ability to have conversations with their deceased loved ones by recreating them digitally, using pictures, video, and data from their lives.  Jeff and Anthony think this is the technological version of clairvoyant shysterism, but actually stumble upon some interesting use cases.</p>

      <title>No Way, No Cow</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>A group of biohackers is working on a way to create cheese without ever using an animal.  The idea is to take custom-fabricated snippets of DNA and insert them into yeast to fabricate truly vegan cheese.  In fact, they don't even need to use DNA from a cow.  They could end up making human cheese.  Jeff and Anthony debate the merits of dairy without the cow, and decide what kind of cheese they'd like their DNA to make.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>The Lujan Zoo outside of Buenos Aires has been dubbed the &quot;World's Most Dangerous Zoo&quot; because it allows visitors to cuddle, fondle, and feed lions, tigers, and bears.  But when Anthony and Jeff hear about these practices, all they see are the inhumane and disgusting manner in which the animals are treated to ensure they remain in a state of lethargic docility.  Are humans really this insecure about their place on the food chain?  Oh, and what jungle cat is best to ride to school?</p>

      <title>Detour a Head</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>A 30-year-old Russian man Valery Spiridonov has volunteered to become the world's first head transplant.  His terrible, degenerative spinal disease has forced him to resort to drastic actions, but some scientists are worried that the resulting neural confusion of a human head transplant may actually be worse than death.  Jeff and Anthony wonder what kind of doctor would try such a thing, and consider the ramifications.</p>

      <title>Speedy Spider Spasms</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Researchers studying the movements of tarantulas in different climates have discovered that at higher temperatures spiders can actually move much faster.  This is due to fluid in their joints becoming more viscous in high heat.  The trade-off is that they also become more wobbly and out of control.  Jeff and Anthony imagine the hydraulic robots that might be created based on this information, and worry about running from them on a warm day.</p>

      <title>Con Charter of Mars</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Anthony and Jeff had such high hopes for Mars One - the non-profit offering one-way trips to the red planet to anyone willing to apply.  But according to at least one high-ranking applicant, the entire endeavor looks like a scam.

The guys work through their feeling about being denied the option to die in space.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Researchers have created remote-controlled crawling insects before, forcing a bug’s legs to move by electrically stimulating its muscles. But now, for the first time, the muscles that control flight in beetles have been identified, allowing the same technology to create remote-controlled flying bugs.  Jeff and Anthony wonder how this breakthrough will be used, and long it will take to assemble the vast cyborg beetle army that will destroy us all.</p>

      <title>Why We Can&apos;t Have Mice Things</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>A new article on i09 describes animal behaviorist John Calhoun's quest to create the perfect mouse city, complete with abundant food, recreation, and even rodent apartments.  Now referred to as the &quot;Behavioral Sink&quot;, the utopian underground mouse habitat quickly degraded into an apocalypse, as the mice turned on one another and the bloated population died out.  Anthony and Jeff can't help but see parallels to modern life, but also take a moment to consider what kind of guy spends his time attempting to perfect rat cities.</p>

      <itunes:summary>A new article on i09 describes animal behaviorist John Calhoun&apos;s quest to create the perfect mouse city, complete with abundant food, recreation, and even rodent apartments.  Now referred to as the &quot;Behavioral Sink&quot;, the utopian underground mouse habitat quickly degraded into an apocalypse, as the mice turned on one another and the bloated population died out.  Anthony and Jeff can&apos;t help but see parallels to modern life, but also take a moment to consider what kind of guy spends his time attempting to perfect rat cities.</itunes:summary>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>*not necessarily a guarantee</p>
<p>One robotics company, Clearpath Robotics, has promised never to make autonomous killing machines, and hopes all future tech companies will get on board with the no killer robot promise.  Problem solved, right?  Jeff and Anthony aren't so sure, and see a future where solemnly swearing with no take-backs might not be enough.  This episode also features French robots, so there's that.</p>

The question was asked last year by an Oxford University professor, but isn't the real question: if we could make a drug that let people do multiple lifetimes of thinking, why would we waste it on punishment instead of giving brilliant minds multiple lifetimes to solve human problems?

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A group of researchers studying the effects of alcohol on speech decided to get some birds drunk.  They divided a group of zebra finches - birds that learn and produce sounds similar to humans - into two groups.  One sipped pure juice and the other a mixture of ethanol and juice.  The results may shock you.  Or not.  Jeff and Anthony wonder how a group of researchers can spend grant money intoxicating birds, and why the fact that they slur their tweets is news to anyone.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A review led by a brain scientist at MIT found growing evidence that brain scans can predict future behaviors.  If, one day, we are able to simply scan our brains to determine what kinds of activities we are more inclined to excel at, or problems we may encounter, will that lead to a healthier, more adaptive populace, or one shackled to in-born tendencies?  Anthony and Jeff wrestle with that question, and try to predict what their own brain scans might indicate.</p>

      <title>Lay Around on Your Astronaut</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>NASA is conducting a study about the long-term effects of weightlessness by asking applicants to stay completely horizontal for 70 days.  In exchange for staying in bed and never standing up up, even to use the restroom or shower, NASA will pay test subjects $18,000, which works out to $1,200 per week or $257 per day.  Anthony and Jeff wonder if they could stand it, and why NASA is holding out on horizontal showering technology for everyone.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Scientists at the University of Rochester Medical Center in New York have successfully implanted human glial cells into the brains of mice to shocking result.  Not only were the cells not rejected, but the human cells completely dominated the mouse brain cells.  More incredibly, this led to mice which demonstrated a much higher capacity for memory and cognitive skill.  Yep, Anthony and Jeff are thinking what you're thinking: the age of super-intelligent mice is upon us, and it is only a matter of time before we are all doomed.  Listen as the guys bid farewell to the human race.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Anthony and Jeff delve into perhaps the most disturbing topic they have ever tackled.  An article in National Geographic features the top 5 most terrifying &quot;zombie&quot; creatures - parasites that get inside of other creatures and force them to change their behavior, malform, or otherwise serve the parasite's procreation.  These are some of the most horrible organisms in the natural world.  This episode is not recommended for sensitive listeners.</p>

      <title>Must Seethe TV</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>An NPR story about NBC's Peter Pan Live television event points out that a significant portion of the audience of major TV hits are people who self-identify as &quot;hate-watching&quot; the programming.  In fact, some networks are even programming to take advantage of these tendencies, embracing the live-tweeters who mock and add snide comments to the viewing experience.  Jeff and Anthony have a major problem with the idea of &quot;hate-watching&quot;, but also both enjoy a great bad movie.  Are they hypocrites, or is there a difference between ironic enjoyment and vicious mockery?</p>

      <title>Your Sh@t Don&apos;t Stink</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>By actually printing DNA, researchers are now able to create entirely new species.  They started with a glow-in-the-dark plant, and now have plans to design microbes that will live in your stomach and actually change the smell of your fecal matter. Even crazier, they may be able to associate particular gas odors with biological states, so you can effectively have an early warning system built inside you.  Anthony couldn't be more excited, but Jeff wonders when our Frankenstein microbes will inevitably destroy us all in a flowery-smelling apocalypse. </p>

      <title>The Crystal Method</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Researchers from the University of Southern Denmark have synthesized crystalline materials that can bind and store oxygen in high concentrations. That means that we may be able to use crystals to replace oxygen tanks or even allow divers to simply draw oxygen directly out of H2O through the crystal.  Anthony has always wanted to breathe underwater, but Jeff is worried about sucking on crystals for more than good vibes.</p>

      <title>Lego Worm Brain</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>An open source group has recreated the brain of a worm, neuron for neuron, and recently programmed this data into the body of a Lego Mindspring robot.  Rather than dictating specific behavior into the software, the program simply fires each neural imulse exactly as a worm's brain would.  The result is remarkably worm-like behavior in Lego form.  While Jeff can't exactly pin down the size of this creation, he is excited about what it means, but Anthony is worried worm-behavior is a low bar for judging artificial brains.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A British performance artist is raising money to live inside the Oculus Rift virtual environment nonstop for 28 days.  He will be connected at all times with another human being - someone he has never met - seeing what he sees, eating what he eats, sleeping and going to the bathroom only when he does.  Jeff and Anthony are fascinated by this idea, but wonder when and how this experience will break down.  Also the puking.  There's got to be a lot of puking.</p>

      <itunes:summary>Scientists studying the brain&apos;s ability to make choices note that the fewer inconsequential decisions you put in front of yourself, the better you&apos;ll do when it is time to face a really challenging one.  Armed with that knowledge, many prominent deciders like President Obama and Steve Jobs removed the decision of what to wear from their lives.  They simply wear the same clothes every day.  Anthony and Jeff wonder if wearing a uniform for life might be beneficial, what that outfit might look like, and how comfort fits into the equation.

      <title>A Tough Pill to Swallow</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Researchers at MIT have developed a new pill that is much more efficient at delivering medicine into the bloodstream.  Instead of a simple spheroid, it is covered in a multitude of tiny spikes, which stick into the stomache lining and ensure the medicine is absorbed rather than passed through the body undigested.   Jeff is fascinated by the evolution of the swallow-able tablet, from its roots thousands of years ago to the more common &quot;friable&quot; form introduced in the 19th century - but Anthony wants no part of swallowing spike-balls.  Beware the Spike Lobby.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Previously on We Have Concerns... in the Welcome to the Hoverboard Future episode Anthony mocked Jeff's enthusiasm for a mind-bending new technology that indicated that hoverboards may, in fact be possible.  Now, there is a new article on Engadget that describes a working prototype soon making its way onto Kickstarter.  Does Jeff get the last laugh, hovering his way back into the future he's always wanted, or is Anthony still able to poke penny-sized holes in the dream?</p>

      <title>Tell Me How to Feel</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>A new article describes a study in which doctors told patients they would just be getting a shot of vitamins, but instead gave them something a thousand times more powerful.  Whether these subjects thought something strange was happening or not depended entirely upon what the doctors told them they should expect.  This leads Jeff and Anthony to wonder just how much impact our conscious mind can have on our reality, and whether or not we can use this to our advantage.</p>

      <title>Saturday Mourning</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Saturday morning cartoons are no more!

      <itunes:summary>Researchers in California are planning to treat Alzheimer patients by replacing their blood with blood of young people.  Even crazier, there is reason to believe it may work, since old mice have become healthier and more youthful when their circulatory systems carried the blood of younger mice.  This, combined with the story of a jellyfish that can reverse its aging process when sick or injured, has Anthony and Jeff pondering the possibility of immortality.  That, and the inevitable vampire grandpas who&apos;ll be stealing young blood to live forever.

      <itunes:summary>Humans controlling waterways by building dams has caused major problems for salmon, who must return to fresh water to breed. But a new company - Whooshh Innovations (not making that up) - has developed a better way to help salmon get upstream: a giant salmon cannon.  Anthony thinks this is the perfect Rube Goldberg solution to the problem, while Jeff worries about a country that solves every problem by turning things into guns.
