Description

Scribando and Bookbarella return! We're a little tipsy for the first four episodes of the season in service to a future TBC episode, so this one is perhaps not our greatest season opener. We try and fail to do a little scientific thinking around particle and quantum physics and sing a fake song for your amusement, though, so there's that.

Special Thanks to:

• Ken from Antiques Freaks for narrating our cold open for this season
• Lightwitch/Courtney Brooke Hall for our new photos
• Greylord's Hoard for our new logo and graphic design

• You can find many episodes about particle physics and other quantum topics we mentioned on Daniel & Kelly's Extraordinary Universe podcast:

• What is a particle?

• Time travel fiction

• Unraveling misleading popular science

• How to make sense of quantum entanglement

• Focus playing Hocus Pocus on NBC in 1973 (introduced by Gladys Knight!)

In addition to our usual barnyard language, today's episode includes discussion of depression, suicide, and very brief mentions of guns and pet death.
