Trending today: a deep dive into dendrochronology, the science of using tree rings to glean information about the past. (In this case, a study suggesting a desert in China hasn’t actually been a desert for as long as we thought.) Then again, how do we know they’re not just speculating with totally unearned confidence?!

Trending today: hurricane experts are debating whether to add a “Category 6” to the Saffir-Simpson scale – but will that make people less likely to take Category 5 hurricanes seriously? Victor understands the argument, though Aaron’s not sure we should be that concerned about people who dismiss Cat 5 hurricanes. (Also, should we even be using wind speed as the primary categorizer in the first place?)

Trending today: Victor and Aaron spar over when and whether it’s polite to be wearing headphones in public. (Aaron is pro, Victor is anti, but they’re not really that far apart.) Also, Victor and Aaron have doppelgangers, and Aaron unfairly stereotypes Trader Joe’s.

Trending today: “Our Cow Angus,” a stunt by the MSCHF art collective. They bought a cow and presold hamburgers – but now they say they’ll save the cow if enough people cancel their orders. Don’t you want the cow to live??! (Also, Victor really, really, really hates Damien Hirst, and Aaron does his best Susan Sontag impression to expound on the concept of camp.)

Trending today is a surprisingly positive statistic: even though many of us have numerous streaming-service subscriptions, the average American is actually paying less for TV today than they did twenty years ago. (Also, Victor apparently hasn’t been to Southpoint mall in decades.)

Trending today is another negative side effect of Trump’s tariffs and trade wars: the collapse of the ginseng industry in Wisconsin. Wisconsin farmers export lots of ginseng to China (and have been since the mid-18th century, says Victor, though Aaron has doubts) – but Trump’s actions have led China to stop buying ginseng from us and start buying it from Canada instead. (Also, Victor very abruptly learns that online articles about ginseng are sometimes accompanied by extremely salacious ads about its, um, aphrodisiac abilities. Good thing radio’s not a visual medium.)

Trending today: a very nerdy new video game called Federal Reserve Simulator, where you can play as a Fed chair trying to save the economy. Michael Koh fills in for Victor, but Victor’s along for the ride along with Henry Taylor.

Trending today: a bill in the Florida legislature to make the flamingo the official state bird – with one dissenting voice in Pensacola. Michael Koh (filling in for Victor) is surprised the flamingo isn’t already the Florida state bird, but Aaron actually associates Florida with chickens more than flamingos. (There’s a good reason.) Also, Aaron digs into the shady origin of those weird names we give to different groups of animals.
