Ever dreamt of a cosmic adventure? Well, we've got you covered. An epic tale of NASA's Osiris Rex mission, where we faced challenges akin to landing on crushed Cheerios, and the joy of emerging victorious with a sample from an asteroid. If you're a science enthusiast, this is your ticket to understanding the trials, triumphs, and the euphoria in the scientific community with the asteroid sample's return. But that’s not all!
Ever had a restless night's sleep and woke up with a dry mouth? Then, you might want to hear about the unusual trend of mouth taping. Emerging as a post-surgery practice for a deviated septum, it's now a TikTok sensation. We chew over the anecdotal benefits and the need for a scientific seal of approval before you decide to tape your mouth shut for that elusive good night's sleep.
Our curiosity doesn't stop there. Join us as we unfurl the fascinating world of bird cognition - the tufted titmouse and its 63 life-long learned vocalizations and its humble counterpart, the brown-headed cow bird with nine. Plus, we journey back in time to an ancient cold snap that almost wiped out our pre-human ancestors. As we chat about these and more, including our experiences learning Spanish and dealing with snoring, we promise you an episode filled with humor, facts, and some astounding revelations, making it a must-listen!
