  • #11 Leap Year, Daylight Savings, Time Zones

    In this podcast episode, we have a Geophysicist explain to us why we need daylight saving time, Leap years, and different time zones.  Yes they are often frustrating, but there's a reason.  What even is time?  Who knows?  Will you just accept that the time changes?  Or do you care to know why?  This episode was actually a leap back in time for us because we recorded the next episode first.

  • #10 Carbeernation
    In this episode, Paul and Dr. Bob discuss what makes a disease, how drinks get carbonated, we speculate on how beer came to be, talk about how the beer is brewed, and much much more.  We even talk about how one could possibly manipulate time.  Also Dr. Bridget comes on to give us even more corrections because apparently we suck at research.  More on marsupials.  We push the limits of what is considered "tastefully" off task.  Give us your thoughts, your likes, your listens, and rate us or something.  Is anyone even reading these?  Am I just wasting my time?  I won't know if you don't reach out.
