This Is Going Well, I Think With David Cooper

Science educator Dan Riskin confronts David about being late for today's taping, then finds the time to actually talk about science stories on the show. Stories covered: Orcas once hunted alongside humans, even those lineages are likely extinct; The 64 year-old Taiwanese woman who had a jumping spider living in her ear; and A new study showing how one particularly nasty parasite got its mind-controlling abilities. The two briefly discuss AI, with David pondering whether biological parasites could infect computers in the future. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
