Mitä antiikin ajan vessakirjoitukset kertovat ihmisistä?

Millaisia juttuja antiikin roomalaiset raapustivat seinään? Entä saiko roomalaisissa vessoissa tehdä tarpeensa rauhassa? Antiikin tutkija, latinan kielen ja Rooman kirjallisuuden dosentti Laura Nissin avaa, mitä käymälät kertovat kreikkalais-roomalaisesta elämästä ja kulttuurihistoriasta. Mitä tiedämme antiikin roomalaisista vessakirjoitusten perusteella, ja miksi sillä on väliä? Utelias mieli on Helsingin yliopiston podcast, joka puhuu tieteestä tunteella.

The Sweetest Thing

“What is the sweetest thing in the world?” After co-host Latif Nasser’s sons ask him this deceptively simple question, he goes on a quest to find it. Is it a West African Katemfe berry? Or an industrial sugar substitute cooked up in a lab? Or an ingredient hiding in plain sight in all of our pantries? A simple mystery that will make you question what sweetness even is, how our tongues (and other body parts you wouldn’t expect) determine what we like, and how far you would go to taste something sweeter than anyone has ever experienced. Thank you to Latif’s sons for indulging us, to Nicola Twilley and Cynthia Graber at Gastropod, to Anni Laffitte, Nazli Parvizi at Museum of Food and Drink, to food icons Claire Saffitz and Sam Seneveratne who did a live show version of this episode with us at the Tribeca Festival. And thank you to Davy Gardner and his wonderful team of audio folks at the Tribeca Festival. Thank you to Jialin Deng who composed the song that was our ‘sonic seasoning’. And to Laura Rickman and everyone else at Columbia University’s Mortimer B Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute for hosting us. And big thanks to experimental psychologist Charles Spence at Oxford, sweetness chemist Grant DuBois, Danielle Reed at Monell Chemical Senses Center, and nutritional scientist Sarah Berry at King’s College London who all talked to us about their research. And Brian Everett of Honest Organic Farms.And a very special thanks to Sean Oomens, inventor of producer Jess Yung’s favorite candy, nerd gummy clustersEPISODE CREDITS: Reported by - Latif Nasserwith help from - Jessica Yung, Maria Paz Gutierrez, Jessica Yung, Ekedi Fausther-Keeys, and Natalia RamirezProduced by - Jessica Yung with help from - Mona Madgavkar, Maria Paz Gutierrez, Gabby Santas, and Maia Appleby Melamedwith mixing help from - Jeremy BloomFact-checking by - Sophie Samieeand Edited by - Pat Walters EPISODE CITATIONS: Videos: Youtuber Chemiolis tried to make Luguduname himself (https://zpr.io/MmUbGfwwFrFH) Articles - Race to Redesign Sugar (https://zpr.io/VpsMxfPRbxaz) by Nicola TwilleyThe Search for Sweet (https://zpr.io/JmeDkVhrd2dK) by Burkhard BilgerHow My Trip to Quit Sugar Became A Journey Into Hell (https://zpr.io/ni6xgC38Qmyf) by Caity WeverHow Much of Our Existence Do We Owe to Sugar?

Mindscape Ask Me Anything, Sean Carroll | September 2026

Welcome to the September 2026 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). We take questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable number -- based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good -- and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic. Enjoy! Blog post with show notes and transcript: https://preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2026/09/14/ama-september-2026/ Stop piecing your software together.

How Codes Were Used To Hack The Telegram Business

What if a single strange word could save you a fortune? In this episode Michael opens up a Victorian telegram code book and explores how users compressed long messages into brief coded words to outwit the per word charge of the telegraph system. Coded language turned everyday phrases about everyday events into something that looked like nonsense to outsiders, and why that secrecy was often a side effect of economy rather than espionage, and how operators learned to live inside this clipped new dialect of distance and delay. ------------------- For more information about Cancer Research UK, their research, breakthroughs and how you can support them, visit https://cancerresearchuk.org/restisscience Cancer Research UK is a registered charity in England and Wales (1089464), Scotland (SC041666), the Isle of Man (1103) and Jersey (247).

#216 Astrobiologi

I tusentals år har människor funderat på om det finns liv på andra planeter. Men det är först under de senaste decennierna som frågan på allvar blivit möjlig att undersöka vetenskapligt. Astrobiologin söker spår av liv i vårt eget solsystem, men har även upptäckt tusentals planeter runt andra stjärnor där liv också skulle kunna finnas. Vad letar vi egentligen efter när vi letar efter liv? Hur går sökandet till mer exakt och hur stor är sannolikheten att vi hittar det? Och vad menar astrobiologerna när de talar om extremofiler, jordtvillingar och biosignaturer? Bildningspodden ger sig ut i yttre rymden och tillbaka genom kulturhistorien för att förstå människans fascination inför andra livsformer. Gäster i studion är astrobiologen Sandra Siljeström, astronomen Alexis Brandeker och idéhistorikern David Dunér. Samtalsledare och redaktör: Magnus Bremmer Klippning: Lars in de Betou Inspelning, Lunds universitet: Martin Degrell Bildningspodden är en del av Anekdot – det digitala bildningsmagasinet, producerat vid Humanistiska fakulteten vid Stockholms universitet, finansierat av Kungl. Vitterhetsakademien och Riksbankens jubileumsfond. Läs mer om Bildningspodden och magagsinets övriga utbud på anekdot.se
