Research begins at 26:32
Where is everybody!? No, Bunk Funkers, this isn’t Andy and Art wondering why no one showed up to their bunker party - it’s Enrico Fermi pondering about extraterrestrials during lunch with his colleagues. And in this week’s episode Andy and Art serve you up the whole enchilada on The Fermi Paradox for lunch. They also cover Rare Earth, The Gaian Bottleneck, The Great Silence, and a whole bunch of other theories as to why we haven’t found any aliens yet!
Andy and Art are captured once again by the titular Mr. Bunker - how did he fool them this time?
In the second segment, Andy and Art give you, the listeners, an uninterrupted presentation of their research into The Fermi Paradox.
Finally, Andy and Art discuss Fermi Paradox at length. They also talk about big hawg problems, Andy’s problem with pandas, Stanislav Petrov, and so much more!
