Episode 117 - 6 Degrees of Coolness (it doesn’t get much cooler than 6 degrees) - 1/4/26

Episode 117 is one of our favorite types: a delightful grab bag of random topics! There's a section all about trends: fashion trends in the chimp community, wellness trends among orca, trends in human coolness over the years; a section about food (talking mushrooms and bitter honey); why deaf people sneeze differently than hearing people; and, of course - chlamydia in koalas.   6 traits of coolness   Chimp fashion trends   Orca wellness trends   Orca present humans with offerings of food   A chlamydia vaccine....for koalas   New flavors of honey   Dogs are good for mental health   A critical age when thinking begins to decline   Can mushrooms actually talk?   Why don't deaf people say "achoo" when sneezing?   Making a big life move
