In our third episode, Chris talks about last words and epitaphs, and has Henny guess who said what. Talking points: revisiting the teleporter/mortality question; Vedek Bareil Antos as a cyborg; which scientist had the most humble last words?; choreographing a dance while dying; a bad-ass Jewish rabbi. We talked for so long that this episode will be released in two parts (part B will be released in a week or so). Other show notes available at http://dirtnappod.tumblr.com/

In our second episode, Henny talks about cannibalism for about an hour, because you can't stop the eatin' dudes train. Chris talks about the Permian Extinction and there is a pop quiz! Talking points: cannibal band names, George H W Bush almost got eaten, Rohtenburg is a sh*tty movie, eating bananas to practice eating dicks, Henny is bad at guessing about extinctions but good at guessing about species.
