Episode 106: Dolphins, Dumb Humans & Men of Science- Flight 1080

Flight 1080 – Episode 106: Dolphins, Dumb Humans & Men of Science What if we had wheels instead of legs?  Dave and Billy ponder what it takes for a species to become technologically advanced—and why dolphins, despite being pretty smart, still haven't invented so much as a can opener. Dave commits an even greater scientific mystery by completely forgetting Billy's birthday, and Men of Science returns to tackle more of life's most unnecessary questions. Then, after revisiting the bizarre Six Million Dollar Man episode "Burning Bright," featuring William Shatner as a scientist obsessed with sending dolphins into space, Dave and Billy decide to test the concept themselves. Billy takes Mission Control while Dave becomes the world's first dolphin astronaut. What could possibly go wrong?
