I think I've been pretty lucky and lived a pretty interesting life. My name is Jay Crandell and I have become very interested in our unlikely origins while reflecting on my unlikely survival from a very serious gunshot wound to the brain. This led me to examine our improbable emergence as a species and a civilization - and it sure looks like we're all really lucky Martians living in a multiverse, who owe our existence to Jupiter's presence, the Zanclean flood, the savannah's emergence and the hallucinogenic mushrooms that would grow on the droppings of the ruminants there, a well-timed supernova and an unusually docile sun!

When I started this, I was in a pretty dark place. Since then, I have come to realize just how lucky I have been, how lucky we all are, the importance of the Zanclean flood in our origins, and of deep-sea rare earth nodules in preventing our untimely end. And that I'm a particularly lucky Martian. To see the Google Docs version of this episode, with extra bits that didn't quite work in podcast form, visit tinyurl.com/luckymartian11
