    Any Updates in Science?
    Feb 15 2026

    We look back at topics discussed in earlier episodes and see if any new research has updated any theories, or if any new scientific conclusions have been derived since we last talked about them. We discuss several topics in the paleontology world as well as species that have recently gone extinct.

    As always we tend to ramble over related topics throughout the episode and bring 2025 to a close.

    Thank you for listening and we look forward to another fun year with interesting scientific topics to discuss.
