 Edible Water And Sneaker Laces: Episode 82 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:27:11

If you're a regular listener then you've probably noticed that this, and the past two episodes have been reruns of previous episodes. We've been taking a break while we play our most popular episodes from the vault. We will have a new show next week. If your a new listener... never mind. This week we examine edible water bubbles. We don’t eat or drink any, we just examine… the idea. We’re also talking about a Harvard study on the physics behind why shoelaces come untied… and the feet that love them. Other topics that we get sidetracked with are Fruitarians, Breatharians, plant EKGs, Ents and Entwives, the British version of Kickstarter, Boba tea, kale(again), and we watch an advertisement(?) for Joan’s barbecue and foot massage.

 Rat Cafe: Episode 81 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:32:39

Rygar, Offroad and Borg present another set of unusual stories from the internet. Cat cafes, dog cafes and even a rat cafe. But first we chat about the hard-hitting questions that everyone’s been dying to know: What kind of coffee do you like? What kind of hipster? How tall is America? Why does Charlie Chaplin have the same mustache as Hitler? There exist cat cafes where you can drink coffee while you hang around with free-roaming cats. There are also dog cafes which are very similar to the cat cafés except the cats are instead dogs. Finally, there is a rat café and guess what the cats there are? Yep, the cats are rats! Try to drink your coffee while your hanging out with rats. This is a re-release of episode 23. We'll be back next week with new episodes.

 Spin Cycle: Episode 80 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:35:07

This is a re-release of episode 13. Let's take a break and look back at the way things were. We spend a bit of time watching a wash machine cycle (we review someone else’s review) and it’s some of the most fun I’ve had in a while. There’s suspense, heartache, thrills, and... cats! Here’s a little spoiler: 1600 RPMs! Lyrebird is a startup with new speech synthesis technology. They can take a one minute recording of someone’s voice and use it to generate a key which can then be used to generate speech of that person saying anything you want. The company is giving it away for free? Offroad mentions a theory that looting of stereo equipment during an LA riot helped rap/hip hop to grow. Actually, the theory is that this looting happened during a blackout in New York city in 1977. There is a caterpillar that eats plastic, on purpose. I think he likes it. There is also a quick (ha ha) story about particle accelerators. Look out for Future Shock - the idea and the Herbie Hancock song.

Finally, those crazy scientists are at it again and this time they've discovered a new hybrid dolphin. There's a lot of weird stuff on the internet and not enough time to look at it all.
