The Bone Guy - March 21, 2025

David gives a cat update and reads some listener texts. Our top stories: Zombie deer disease (sorry, scientists); and Pirate's Booty founder takes over village. Dr. David Samson – a rebel in studying sleep – explains that we might be on the verge of a sleep enlightenment. Microbiome researcher Dr. Sean Gibbons tells you what your poop schedule says about your health. David interviews Wilder "The Bone Guy" Duncan about an interaction they had at a party, and what it's like to be a skeletal specialist and taxidermist. Astrophysicist Dr. Jesse Rogerson shares why satellites are a problem for astronomers and how we might find aliens by sniffing for their flatulence. (Check out Jesse's book Daydreaming in the Solar System here.) Finally, Dr. Eva Oberle outlines how youth are not exercising enough in British Columbia.
