Weekly roundup — Let's talk (to a whale)
If we wanted to talk to a gigantic underwater animal, how would we do that? Also, lose weight... by making friends!
-
Yes, songs are getting simpler, angrier & more about 'me'
Dear elderly people, you were right. Today's music isn't what it used to be. The interesting part is why.

A (surprising) connection between bad eating & loneliness
If you're home alone on a Friday night, you might stuff your face full of chips, chocolate or candy. (Gabe and Conor do.) A study on brain activity shows it's not entirely your fault, though — and that there may be a way to solve it.

Weekly roundup — In your head, your heart & your tummy
Angry? New research shows you can 'export' it and then destroy it! Also, make yourself healthier and happier... by being touched... by something!

Please touch me (it's for my health)
Are we touching each other less? Probably. Does it matter? Very much. If you're missing physical contact, new research will make you feel better.

Where do you feel music?
A good song resonates inside you. But the question is... where? Well, it depends — on 'surprise' and 'uncertainty.'
Customer Reviews
Better & Better
The entire DW catalog is new to me this year and can't get enough. A great way to stay informed while avoiding the senseless and devisive rhetortic that is at every turn in the U.S. right now. Keep on keepin on.
Great Show has a whole new level
I love Spectrum because of the myriad of subjects touched upon, always interesting and relevant, always engaging. And now with Cyrus Farivar as the new host, it's better than ever. I have listened to his work for many years on The World and CBC and have always enjoyed his inquisitive style and friendly voice.
Horrible hosts
What indulgence! They get paid for doing this? They need to improve the content. The interview of the coworker whose husband got bitten by piranhas are not scientific. They also included the shower singing in the gym. Is it relevant? Pure indulgence of the hosts. I listened to a few episodes but just cannot carry on anymore.
