    Animal Consciousness and Other Ideas – Soul Forge 320

    Animal Consciousness and Other Ideas – Soul Forge 320

    Animal Consciousness and Other Ideas!







    Are animals self aware? Scientific evidence supports the assumption that it “feels like something” for a fish to be caught on a hook. Shawn and Leah have a bit of a lively discussion regarding animal consciousness. They talk about their dads, wedding preparations, taxes, television shows and more!







    Scientists and philosophers across the globe agree it is reasonable to assume the vast majority of creatures on Earth are sentient in some way. This includes lobster, squid and the tiny flies that swarm over drinks left outside in the summer.







    The New York Declaration on #Animal #Consciousness, released Friday, was signed by 39 cognition scholars. They are from universities from #Canada to #Australia. It says there is “at least a realistic possibility” that all vertebrates and many invertebrates have conscious experience.







    The declaration rests on recent scientific studies that show garter snakes can recognize their own scent. Crows can report what they see, octopi can avoid pain and fruit flies can sleep — and they sleep best when they’re with other fruit flies. Animal consciousness and other ideas is the 320th episode of the Soul Forge Podcast.







    Also on this episode are discussions about fears, and how much work has been recently dumped onto Letter Carriers. #Television shows mentioned include #Fallout, #Crusade, #Robocop and #Star Trek Discovery. Leah and Shawn’s dad started planting in the greenhouse. They sat and shared their seeds.

    Flopcast 624: Spider-Man Night Fever

    Flopcast 624: Spider-Man Night Fever

    Flopcast episode 624! Inspired by a recent viewing of Saturday Night Fever, Kevin and the Mayor of Chickentown flip through some comic books from the late 70s, when DC and Marvel tried to cash in on the disco craze. While Dazzler would become Marvel’s disco queen of the 80s, first Spider-Man crawled around the dance floor battling the Hypno-Hustler! Then Batman and Flash enjoyed some Bee Gees tunes at the Disco of Death! Even Superman caught disco fever, and Clark Kent’s bizarre dance moves must not be missed. Did Peter Parker and Bruce Wayne wear identical white John Travolta suits? Let’s find out. We also enjoy a few classic comic book ads for Sea Monkeys, Fruit Stripe gum, Spalding basketballs, Kryptonite rocks, the Micronauts Battle Cruiser, and (of course) Twinkies. And now we just want to see a disco-dancing Twinkie the Kid. We have a problem.
