I know that talking about hair is a bit different than subjects we normally tackle here, but this episode is very informative. And recycled human hair has a pretty cool use. There may be a tangent or two cause that never happens on this podcast.

I needed to get a few thoughts out of my system. 

My guest this week is Dr. Casey Hester, an Oklahoma City based pediatrician. As a pediatrician Dr. Hester is strong advocate for kids with ADHD, and she will tell us what to look for in your child if you think ADHD is a possibility.  She will also talk about some of the courses of action that can be made once there is a diagnosis. 

We also briefly talk about me unknowingly being her first ADHD patient in high school by giving me boxes of Gobstoppers.

My wife joins me to talk about two of her favorite bands. Will one of hers be a band that has already been discussed? Walk through the figurative door of this podcast, and you too will know.

Ralph and I talk a bit about Black Holes and Jupiter. 

In this episode my guest is Phil Quagliariello. Phil grew up a preachers kid to an Independent Fundamental Baptist pastor and gives us some inside knowledge of how it has some rather toxic beliefs. We talk about how it shares some of those beliefs with the Institute of Basic Life Principles. We then move into talking about the Josh Duggar guilty verdict. 

Trigger Warning: This episode contains talk of CSA & CSAM.

I'm talking about the evangelical view on the age of the earth and how mathematically it doesn't add up. There is a whole industry of evangelicals who give speeches, have YouTube channels or museums trying to prove their point. I talk about how sloths prove them wrong.

I'm once again joined by my son Duncan. He is an expert in GPS satellites and he is going to tell us what it is and isn't capable of doing. Spoilers: there is literally no way to be injected with a GPS receiver, listen and find out why.
