Special roundtable with Simon Russell and Gareth A Hopkins
In this very wholesome threesome, Simon Russell and Gareth A Hopkins rejoin Uncomics host Allan Haverholm to discuss what really sets uncomics apart from, say, a Google image search; the "sound" of individual fonts; the singer Sting's sex life, and how a Finnish audience might be more open to uncomics performances. Please note that this conversation builds on the ones in the last two episodes, and it is recommended that you listen to those first! Visit uncomics.org/podcast.html to find all episodes.

Your host Allan Haverholm talks to Gareth about comics, musical inspiration, personal grief and the paranormal.

First-ever unassisted robotic surgery
The first-ever robotic surgery without a human surgeon guiding it has been successfully performed at Johns Hopkins University.

More than a million of these surgeries are performed each year in the US alone and they need to be carried out very precisely and accurately to avoid potentially fatal complications. Professor Axel Krieger, the mechanical engineer on the team, tells Gareth how this is a major advancement in robotic surgery.Singapore Surveillance Singapore of...

Broadcast on 20-Jul-2014
