Underground pop princess Slayyyter joins host Mathias Rosenzweig to learn about killer whales, also known as orcas, from Dr. Michael Weiss—the Research Director for the Center for Whale Research. What happens to these beautiful giants when humans put them in captivity (remember Blackfish)? Do we have any chance of being able to communicate with them? Why were some researchers dropping acid with dolphins? And do whales like Slayyyter's music?
That's what Slayyyter would like to know.

Singer and actor Fin Argus, one of the stars of Peacock's Queer as Folk reboot, joins host Mathias Rosenzweig as well as associate professor and author Eric Stanley to learn about the history of gender queerness. The topic is broad and thus impossible to cover in a single episode. That said, Fin and Eric hone in on representations of gender queerness throughout history, the semantics surrounding queerness, and their own personal journeys through gender exploration.

This week, American singer-songwriter Angel Olsen joins host Mathias Rosenzweig to learn about synesthesia, the perceptual phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway.

This week, singer-songwriter and all-around southern bell Ethel Cain joins host Mathias Rosenzweig to learn about cults, specifically NXIVM. Ex-member and current actress/podcaster Sarah Edmondson (of the "A Little Bit Culty" podcast) discusses the moments in which she became suspicious of what she believed to be a personal and professional development company that, ultimately, left several members branded with the founders' initials, plus answers a few more questions, such as: how does one get deprogrammed after leaving a cult? Why do people wind up joining cults in the first place? And what are they key differences between a cult and a religion?

1Fresh off the release of her sophomore album, 'How to Let Go,' Norwegian pop star Sigrid sits down with host Mathias Rosenzweig and astrophysicist Lia Medeiros to learn all about the mysterious and terrifying subject of black holes. What happens if you get sucked into one? How did we predict they existed? And, with this episode being released just a few days after new photos emerged of our very own galaxy's black hole...how the hell can we photograph something so far away?
Our expert Lia in fact wrote one of the six main papers that came out last Thursday to announce the Sgr A* results. Specifically, she lead the 6th paper, which focuses on using our results to test Einstein’s theory of gravity.

This week, singer-songwriter BANKS joins host Mathias Rosenzweig to discuss modern witchcraft (and a bit of its history) with Dr. Ethan Doyle White, a specialist on the topic.
We’re all familiar with witchcraft. The spells, the brooms, the toads. While these are typical of fictional worlds on TV and in books, there is a very real and non-fictional presence of witchcraft in our world. Thousands of people across the globe consider themselves witches, such as Wiccans—people who celebrate pagan holidays and practice witchcraft as a religion in a very literal sense.
But how do we break down the differences between magic, witchcraft, Wicca, and other branches of paganism?

Specifically, who can be a pop star in 2022 who wouldn't have been previously "accepted?" How do you balance commercial success with artistic freedom? And why is Kim so damn obsessed with gay clubs?
