    Angel Hair and Star Jelly: What the heck is this stuff?

    Listener Mail: Targeted Ads, Driving in Europe, a Word from King John

    An astronaut writes a Tripadvisor review of life in space. King John calls in to prompt an excellent conversation about food as medicine... and how private insurance may help you eat healthy. A European Conspiracy Realist provides context on the idea of mandatory speed limiters -- and why people in the US seem more bothered by it than people across the pond. Charlie describes bizarre experiences with targeted advertising. All this and more in this week's listener mail segment.

    Can you hack the emergency alert system?

    If you live in the US, you've heard the tone before: a staccato series of beeps followed by an oddly neutral voice disclosing any number of warnings or disasters. This is known as the Emergency Alert System. In the event of an emergency, this system can save lives by immediately getting information out to the public ... but what happens if someone hacks it? How easy is it do so?

Will humanity as we understand still be around? Join the guys with special guests John Goforth and Brent Hand, hosts of Hysteria 51, as they explore the strange twists and turns the future may hold for our species... assuming, of course, that we survive.

    Do fish ever really rain from the sky?

    It's a weird -- and weirdly common -- story throughout history: a storm that carries not just rain and thunder, but any number of strange animals dropping along in the ground. In tonight's episode, Ben, Matt and Noel dive into the fact and fiction surrounding historic rains of frog and fish... only to discover there are serious problems with the conventionally-accepted explanation.

Disgusting

You guys sicken me. It’s ok when Canada USA commit murders around the world but without any proof you disgusting racists go on a tangent. How do you come to the conclusion that India was behind this. Maybe USA Canada did these and blaming India. We all know what your country is Upto. Epstein?? Ring a bell? Shame on you.
After this you forgot to do your research that dead person was a world known terrorist. Bombing planes etc. why is USA Canada protecting these terrorists?
