In this episode, Jennifer and Dan take a wild ride through time and space, exploring the mind-bending philosophy of the Tralfamadorians. And let's not forget Dan's own personal tale of wartime trauma - apparently, he once threw up on a rodent. So it goes.

Things to Listen For:

  • The mind-bending concept of Tralfamadorian time perception
  • Billy Pilgrim's surreal experiences as a prisoner of war
  • Dan's gets vertigo and throws up on an animal
