Coughing along, singing our song… [00:00]
- Entomology etymology: there’s two XKCDs for that
- A truly Hall Of Fame cereal, brought to you by the 80s
- Pretty much Tom’s crack-of-dawn routine
- Ira Glass and “the NPR voice” (not everyone likes it)
Following follow-up [09:19]
- Can you find Tom’s limerick in HI 77?
- A closed refutation, and an open discussion, of momentum in sport
- Living in a simulation? Don’t think too hard about it…
Space [21:59]
- The ultra-cool TRAPPIST–1
- Playing with the Drake equation
- Tom’s Star Destroyer mineral rights: 16 Psyche
- The Order of Cistercians of the Strict Observance are pretty chill
“One of these days, Elon…” [45:18]
- “…pow - straight to the moon!”
- Can one enjoy reading Ender’s Game despite its author? We shall see…
