Enough with the Lloyd's already, it's high time for Pye time. The wonderfully smart Jenn Pye picked the appropriately smart Playful Mimic for this Bonus Episode. It was a great conversation and we uncovered deep truths about nature vs nuture, rom coms, and dumpcano. Most egregious error: I said that Johnny Depp starred in a suspense movie called "Secret Garden". He definitely did not. It was definitely "Secret Window". I'm sure that in time, this the title of this movie will be a mystery...even to me. Science level: Semi-science. Lots of good anecdotes, but I didn't read any studies for this one. It's still a great one thanks to Jenn's great insights!

OBA Episode 13 - Big Mother

This podcast would not exist without the guests, and I wouldn't exist without this guest. The family series continues with my mom! She is fierce and wise and definitely picked the right animal, which is the Big Mother. Appropriate, right? It wasn't planned like that, but these things happen. Other notable discoveries were about crazy males, manners, and Hillary's compassion. Most egregious error: I just love saying "genuses" even though I know it's genera. Science level: Extremely high! We had a bit of a time constraint so we packed in the max amount of science possible.

OBA Episode 14 - Efficient Baby Dropper

Recorded way back on New Year's day, the astute Blair-bear and I dragged our sleepy butt's outta bed to record this mellow episode. He channeled the Efficient Baby Dropper as we discovered all sorts of stuff on toilet paper, cowardice, and universal basic income. Most egregious error: I said "antelope seed" when I meant avocado seed. Blair corrected me pretty quick, but wow, that was a doozy. There is such thing as an antelope bitterbush, which must have seeds, but that's not what I was thinking of. Science level: I'd say average. Lots of facts, but we don't get deep into equations or anything like that.
