The Ugliest "Fish" Takes Over Our Show
This may be our longest episode and it's all due to celebrating an odd but amazing creature. Even a good news story about an uber-resourceful inventor is overshadowed by the Hagfish.
ok, we may need to correct a few details of our conversation about Hagfish. They have a cartilage-like plate that helps them "rasp" the flesh they want to eat from the carcass. Or, their body is like a digestive organ and it's more efficient for them to digest their food through their skin than through their stomach!
Hagfish slime expands at an amazing rate and volume. So, they only need to secrete a little bit to create lots and lots of slime.
And, just one more "did you know"...Hagfish slime is one of the softest substances ever recorded. Trying to quantify it meant that researchers had to change the way they measured it.
Oh...and Tim, you didn't mention their useful "tying-their-body-in-a-knot" trick!
For more info check out this article in the Atlantic about Hagfish slime fending off sharks and Priuses
☕️ Today's To-Go Cup: “Friendship is a wildly underrated medication.” ~ Anna Deavere Smith

Are your friends just comfortable? Or do they force you to level yourself up?

You've Got Some 'Splainin to Do...Canada!
Tim is super excited about this day, celebrating the iconic Lucille Ball. There was far more to I Love Lucy than the laughs. And we talk about a team solving a local problem in Vancouver in an amazing way. But, we still don't understand why Canadians waste more food than any other developed nation!

Brain Games & RV's

Is there a path you should be on but you're not taking because of an obstacle?

Food For the Body & Soul
We celebrate another food day today. It's National Sausage Pizza day and that brought out one of Tim's pet peeves: pineapple pizza.
Today's good news story is about food also. Where we buy our food can feed our soul as well. The story celebrates a large grocery chain's efforts to eliminate loneliness.
☕️ Today's To-Go Cup: “It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously, that you might as well not have lived at all – in which case you fail by default." ~ Anonymous
When is the last time you failed at something?
