The crew recaps Nazca Lines and Peruvian culture, then explores DNA, fingerprints, firefly conservation, spinach eye drops, AI brain implants, and gene editing.
So sad that many fireflies are at risk of going extinct in North America. Makes sense to turn off outdoor lights, leave leaves, and reduce pesticide use (esp outdoors).
Georgia, how did you like Arizona?
I haven't seen any...I did not see any outside my home. I probably should see if there are any meet ups for firefly viewings in my area.
Thanks, Nick! I should check out the game.
Lol about the jingle.
I hadn't heard about the scientists' deaths. However, I have been behind on the news. I will read up. And yeah, correlation is not causation. I do find it unusual for many to die too.
Cool how they were able to use the machinery of spinach to reduce inflammation of the rat eye! That's neat!!
LOL I like the Popeye comment!
The use of AIs in implants sounds good. I think this sounds like a good area for AI use.
I am looking forward to the Spidey eps! I am excited for each guest. ๐ So stoked!!
So cool that (potentially) only a few parts of the genome can be changed. If this is going to be verified to work, it is promising.
Lol ya the find and replace joke is funny. It is a cool simplified analogy and joke.
Wow, it is intriguing how fingerprints and iris patterns are so different.
Sequencing genes that aren't doing anything makes sense.
Cool that S4 is being planned.
The info about touch and signal translation is awesome!! But now I think about scratch and sniff stickers and I loved them lol
Hey Joe, Georgia, and Nick!!
How are you?
Yeah, who are you?? Kidding!

Future Holes! Haha cool.
I should try Kanopy. I love my local libraries!
Ooh a Luke Cage novel is in the works? Sweet
Wolf Worms sounds awesome!
I like Daisy. I should watch We Bury Our Dead.
I need to watch Spider-Man: Noir!
๐๐
I pre-ordered the calendar, Georgia. Go Georgia!
Have fun with the event!
You rock. Take care.
