  • Chickens – Varmints! – 22
    Chickens!

    The Varmints podcast decided to tackle the good ol’ chicken for our show this week. Chickens are tough little birds that are smarter than you probably think they are, plus they are entertaining and gregarious with a vital and storied history. They are also delicious! So come and join us, don’t be such a chicken!

    Bok!
    In the news: In the dead of night last weekend in North Carolina’s Alexander County, a massive concrete statue of a rooster disappeared from its perch in front of a poultry farm. Courtesy of NPR.

     

    The thief has run “afoul” of the law.

    Late breaking news: While we were preparing the show notes it was discovered that that chicken in your Subway sandwich might not be totally chicken. Here’s the article on NPR.

    Hey are you gonna finish that Oven Roasted Mystery Meat sub?

    Chickens make great backyard pets and bonus! They lay eggs! He

  • Conservative Comic-Con – Statecraft – 3
    ‘Conservative Comic-Con’ – Episode 3

    In this episode of Statecraft, Brett Stewart and Reagan Simms delve into recent Trump administration action in regard to transgender students in public schools. The president expands groups of immigrants that can be deported, and Kellyanne Conway fires shots at liberal feminists. (While also claiming she isn’t one, but sort of is? Who knows.) Stewart and Simms also discuss “Conservative Comic-Con,” or rather, CPAC, an event where everybody’s favorite former Breitbart senior editor was taken off the guest list. Also, is Bill Maher irrelevant? Here’s the article we cited on the show. Statecraft wants to hear from you if you spot Maher and Milo out on a coffee date!

    [email protected] is where you should yell at us! Shoot us a message and we’ll read it on the show next week. Let us know if this should be a live show, too!

  • Facsimile, Black Mirror – Brokebot Mountain – 19

    Brokebot Mountain created by Blazing Caribou Studios is the podcast where some artificially intelligent people walk through a maze that explores themes of existence and free thought in science fiction TV, movies,  books and cutting edge tech gadgetry.  In today’s episode “Facsimile” Phil and Kari discuss a particular episode of Charlie Brooker’s very popular series, Black Mirror.    Episode 1 of season 2 entitled “Be Right Back.”   

    Synopsis:  Martha, (Played by Haley Atwell) is devastated when her partner Ash (Domnhall Gleeson) is killed in a road accident on the day they planned to move to a country cottage.  At Ash’s funeral, Martha’s friend Sarah tells her of a new service which allows people to communicate with their deceased loved ones by using all their online communications and contributions. Martha is appalled, and decides to stay in the cottage despite her sister’s view she is isolating herself. One day Martha gets a message from Ash, and she realises Sarah has signed her up for the service. Initially, Martha’s displeased but, on finding she’s pregnant, relents and relishes their conversations. With her comfort-level growing talking with the synthetic Ash, it isn’t long before ‘he’ tells Martha about a ‘next level’ of communicating – one which is…experimental.

  • Pangolins – Varmints! – 21
    Pangolins!

    Varmints podcast ends up accidentally participating in #WorldPangolinDay! Pangolins were a listener request from the Jock and Nerd Podcast, and we just happened to coincidentally record this episode on the very day the rest of the world are appreciating them. So, here we go!

    Here’s some stuff we referenced on the show:
    In the news: Canadians warned about car-licking moose. Moose in Canada are licking salt off of cars and some people think it’s a great idea to try and stop them. The Varmints podcast hereby issues a public advisory: don’t. Moose are big and if they get cranky they can stomp you into bloody bits. Also they have ticks.

    Don’t tick them off!

    Pangolins have all sorts of amazing adaptations to help them get their food. Check out this great video from YouTube user Nat Geo WILD.

    Pangolins also have a great self defense system: armor! These lions find it particularly annoying, but the Pangolin isn’t bothered. Courtesy of YouTube user WildFilmsIndia.

    World Pangolin Day is a great time to look at some other super pangolin videos. We love this one from YouTube user UN Environment.

    Here’s another great video for World Pangolin Day! Courtesy of YouTube user Kim McBride.

    Google made a bunch of little games for Valentine’s day and for #WorldPangolinDay. You can play them here:
