    It's your birthday! You're gonna party!

    If you're Darwin, you're gonna party!!

    Well, since he's deceased, he can't really party. But, we can all party in his honor. Hats off to Darwin this Thursday, February 12th, for Darwin's 200th birthday!

    Today we interviewed Dr. Sean B. Carroll, evolutionary biologist and author of 'Remarkable Creatures', about evolutionary theory and the many adventures of the biologists who have been driven to discover evermore about the world during the past 200 years.

    Here's what we think you should know: The LHC has a timeline! Justin gives a Valentine's Day warning. We ponder what to feed the fish (You heard it here first!). Researchers
    find a giant python. Justin worries about testicular malignancies and marijuana. Florida should be worried. Floridian scientists are helping along World Robot Domination. Dogs give back to wolves. And, send your child to summer science camp (if you live in California).

    Music on this week's show is thanks to
    Chuck Lee Bramlet, Chris Taylor, My Poor Kevin,and Anton Barbeau.
