Summary
Today we discuss the bizarre, and ultimately tragic, tale of a neuroscience expermient from the early 60s, in which dolphins were evaluated and trained for the specific purpose of trying to teach them English. No, really. Bizarre as it may sound, this experiment was bona fide, NASA funded, and had high hopes. Until it went off the rails. Be warned, this is a very sad episode, like rock bottom sad. Thanks for listening to Goose Chase.

Episode 73: Goose Chase Podcast - Established 1720
Release Date: 04/25/2019
Description: What year is it? This is an easy one, right? This can't possibly be a controversial question, right? Wrong. Various theories abound about "phantom time" and what year it really is, for reasons that are sometimes pretty obvious and in another case kind of ambiguous. What year is it really? Is history completely fabricated? How much do we really know about our own past? Sometimes simply injecting doubt sparks a whole new discipline. But what we really want is some hard evidence.

Episode 28: Jumpin' Jehovah
Release Date: 03/08/2018
Description: This week we look into a religion that a lot of people know, but most people don't know much about. To be honest, we're not in the interest of picking on any one religion (though we've talked religion before), but the relatively little most people know about Jehovah's Witnesses sent us off on this goose chase. There's a lot to learn, a lot that sounds familiar, and a lot that just kind of breaks out hearts. Settle in with a tasty bowl of miracle wheat for another Goose Chase.
