Description

Well, you made it; you had to suffer through a headlines-only episode last week (yes, we read your hate mail about this terrible tragedy), knowing you would be rewarded this week with another smooth segment to sate your curiosity, even if just for a few minutes.

So, for your consideration, dear listener, we present an entire extended-length segment today on “Super Blacks: The Blackest Blacks Known to Man.”  These are paints, pigments, and coatings that absorb so much light it will trick your eyes into thinking that it's a void of space leading to another dimension.  But there’s more to this story than simply “some really black paint,” and we look forward to telling it to you in this episode.

But before that, there are all sorts of headlines this week, touching on Munger, De Niro, Apple, Nvidia, and of course, no episode of Nonsense would be complete without an update from our Lord and Savior, Musk.
