1Don't listen to this episode unless you're prepared to get Tig'd! This week we find out what's up with astrobiology from the ever-giggly Emily Rittershaus. From tuberculosis to ice people, we learn about the little creatures living in our bodies and in the bottom of the ocean. So, in a nutshell: We have a great new Professor Blastoff!
I hereby call to order the first ever meeting of The New Thoughter Club! Whether you resemble Mitch Hedberg, Richie Havens, Picasso, or are just a germaphode who likes cat videos you are welcome to join us in this free-for-all free form discussion of art, comedy, thoughts, creativity, and Youtube. Membership is free, all you must do to join is listen and enjoy!
We have a brand new episode of Professor Blastoff for you this week. You're welcome. It really was very selfless of us. Kyle could have been visiting his mother, Tig could have been raising money for hurricane relief, David could have been drinking cool beers, and Dr. Alex Platt could have been trying on pieces of burnt orange outerwear. But instead they got together and made this podcast about altruism. So once again, you're welcome.
We all know which holiday we're celebrating on Thursday, but do we know WHY we're supposed to celebrate it and HOW to give thanks? This week on Professor Blastoff we give you the ultimate pre-Turkey appetizer of historical knowledge and thoughtful discourse on the neurological behavior involved in gratitude. Pass the gravy!
Paul F. Tompkins is remarkably dapper, hilarious, and creative. If you'd like to be more like him you can buy a nice suit and write some good jokes, but can you teach yourself how to be creative? Today on Professor Blastoff we discuss the neurological phenomenon of creativity and how it controls us (as well as how we can control it). I'm sorry this description wasn't more creative. I really dropped the thematic ball this time.
