This episode is all about PAIN!

Well, kind of.  Sprinkled within it is news about Stonehenge, another advancement in alternative energy, and public opinion on AI.

BUT ALSO: Did you know swearing isn't only fun, but helps overcome adversity?  It's a painful truth for anyone who ever told you not to swear so much.  Did you know that science is experimenting with ways to help blind people "see" using electric shocks?  No pain no gain....of...sight...

Also, there's now a mutated enzyme that breaks down plastic with ease.  Sounds pretty painful - for the plastic!

Come join us in admitting that while pain is f*cking inevitable, maybe it makes life a little better.
