    This is What it Sounds Like When Moths Scream

    On this week's show we got the straight talk on faster than light radio waves from Dr. Jon Singleton. He informed us that the recent hubbub was just that... much ado about nothing. But, that nothing was actually really cool. Take a gander during the second half of the show for all the interesting details on how to make people without graduate degrees in physics think that you have broken Einstein's laws of relativity.

    In other news, we covered a tale of tiny legs, an interesting genetic conundrum, why moths make bats hungry, why ice should be public information, ancient dungballs tell ecological tales, and Justin talked about cats and Sufi wisdom.

    Music on the show was by Unbalanced Wheel, Little Tin Frog, Monty Harper, and The Gifted Apes.

    Listen to it all here.

    This month the TWIS Bookclub is reading Michio Kaku's Physics of the Impossible. Check it out:
