Episode 278: Robots, Reptilians, and 250 Million Escaped Bees

May 25

It's a rainy Friday in Colorado and Mike and Tony are in full "we needed the moisture" mode. This week the boys go deep on the invisible bee logistics network holding American agriculture together (yes, really), react to a robot getting its battery confiscated mid-flight, debate whether anyone actually needs a humanoid robot, and somehow end up on piranhas, flying fish, and the most cursed Olympic marathon in history. Plus: Trump's $1.78 billion slush fund, the death of the Colbert era, Trump phones that are basically gold Obama phones, Waymo taxis haunting an Atlanta cul-de-sac, and the neurological phenomenon that makes Pharrell Williams see colors when he hears music. Another week, another rabbit hole.

Cheers!
