    A Little Drunken Walking

    This week we interviewed Dr. Leonard Mlodinow, theoretical physicist, and author of The Drunkard's Walk, about science, Hollywood, and statistics.

    Get yourself a copy of the TWIS Book Club book of the month:



    The TWIS Bookclub will be chatting with Dr. Mlodinow live this Friday at 1pm Pacific Time / 4pm Eastern. Mark your calendars!

    Also on the show, we talked about the future of remote control, making your blood crawl, nature versus nurture in birdsong, This Week in Science... History, and there's lithium in that there water.

    Music on the show was by Unbalanced Wheel, George Hrab, Daniel Messer, and the Gifted Apes.

    Listen to it all here.
