The only constant in this world is change
Friendships fade, children grow up, historical knowledge shifts, the hip become passe.
Decay, consumption, conflict, they are all part of life.
In many ways, it is what makes life truly beautiful.
Yes, nothing stays the same, nothing is forever…
Well, except for a certain podcast perhaps? One that persists, year after year.
Dedicated to the dissemination of the latest science news…
The players may rotate, the format may shift, but one thing is for sure, you can count on

When is dairy not dairy? Would you eat cheese, milk, or ice cream created by a plant? It may be in our future.
