Black Hole picture Whaaaaat?  Find out when a picture is not a picture.  Joe interviews former NASA photographer, photography instructor, and all around good guy Thom Harrop.  They discuss as much as they can during this short format podcast.

NOTE: next month’s podcasts will be switched.  The short podcast will be first, and the second, on the 20th, we are going to try and keep to 20 minutes.  It’s about the science of cooking so, like all good recipes, it will just take the time that it needs to be tasty…
