96: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Pumpkin Mammoth Theory, and Bao Xishun

This week we're joined by very special guest, comic artist Harris Fishman AKA BeetleMoses as we discuss Roald Dahl's relationship to Tim Burton's 2005 adaptation of his book, how Wooly Mammoths helped propagate pumpkins in the Americas, and how the world's tallest man helped save some dolphins. A listener mail tells us about the GOAT of goats, the Christmas Gävle in Sweden.Episode Tabs:Charlie and the Chocolate Factoryhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_and_the_Chocolate_Factory_(film)Study reveals ancient link between mammoth dung and pumpkin piehttps://insider.si.edu/2015/11/dull-mastadon-taste-buds-once-helped-pumpkins-wild-ancestor-thrive/World's tallest man saves dolphinshttps://www.theguardian.com/news/blog/2006/dec/14/anotherdolphinListener Tabs:Gävle goathttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gävle_goat#Email your closed tab submissions to: [email protected] us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/500OpenTabs500 Open Tabs Wiki: https://500-open-tabs.fandom.com/wiki/500_Open_Tabs_Wiki500 Open Roads (Google Maps episode guide): https://maps.app.goo.gl/Tg9g2HcUaFAzXGbw7Continue the conversation by joining us on Discord! https://discord.gg/8px5RJHk7aGet 40% off an annual subscription to Nebula by going to nebula.tv/500opentabsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
