The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) has recently declared that we are now in an El Niño event. This climate phenomenon involves the warming of the sea surface temperatures in the tropical regions of the Pacific Ocean, forming part of the ENSO (El Nino-Southern Oscillation). We discuss what this El Niño may entail, and subsequently how to prepare for the summer heat in Australia.

One of the main concerns is the previous El Niño event was preceded by 3 triple La Niña events. As we briefly touch on why, you can find the research paper we refer to by the National Science Foundation here: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adg1213

Today we're joined by Dr James Hunter, the Curator of Naval Heritage and Archaeology at the Australian National Maritime Museum. In this podcast, we embark on various historical pieces of iconic Naval warfare vessels, including the H.L. Hunley and the HMAS Perth. We also touch on the promising future of technology in Marine Archeology and how it impacts the wider STEM field, including some exciting topics around 3D modelling and advanced sensing.

From Oztek: "Dr. James Hunter is Curator of Naval Heritage and Archaeology at the Australian National Maritime Museum, and an Associate Lecturer in the Department of Archaeology at Flinders University in South Australia. He is also a Research Fellow at the South Australian Maritime Museum, and a Research Associate of the non-profit organisation Ships of Exploration and Discovery Research. He received his M.A. in historical archaeology from the University of West Florida and holds a Ph.D. in maritime archaeology from Flinders University."

The US Congress has held a public hearing on claims the government was concealing a longstanding program that retrieves and reverse engineers UFOs. The fellas talk about the overview of the hearing, highlight a few key clips from the hearing, how this would be possible for UFOs to be surrounding Earth and whether or not this is all just conspiracy theories. Enjoy!

We love a good hypothetical and today's is no different. What would happen if Warfare broke out in our Solar System? We don't know but we are discussing the possibilities, including Nuclear missiles being used, the great distance of the battlefield, the future Star Trek-based Government running the show and much more. Enjoy!

With A.I. looking to be sticking around for a while, we have reluctantly decided to continue talking about it. Today's A.I. episode, with the absence of James, we are discussing the new technologies of the company Rainforest Connection and how they are using A.I. monitoring systems to detect environmental threats such as illegal logging and poaching. We also talk about the Paragraphica, an AI-powered camera that doesn't have a lens. WARNING: many tangents in conversation for this episode. Enjoy!

It's been a while, but we are talking about Conspiracy theories...again. The Hollow Earth Theory, A.I. Simulation Status, and The Dead Internet Theory are amongst the theories discussed. If we aren't allowed to post this, it means they are all true. Enjoy!

As usual, we are late to the party but still eager as ever to talk about the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and this year's report, published on March 20th, 2023. The new report, also known as 'AR6 Synthesis Report,' finds that there is more than a 50% chance that the global temperature rise will reach or surpass 1.5°C between 2021 and 2040.

Today, Sean and James break down the report, the statistics of the report, how the findings affect us, what is being done to stop the rising temperatures and what are the key obstacles. Enjoy!
