00:00:00 - Ryan drinks his most complicated beer yet so thankfully Patrick and Charlie keep it simple and Ben has something else (as usual!)   00:07:50 - Patrick tells us how to make MORE money by being charitable. Man, that guy is crafty. Also, not so fast believing that study, the group tested may be a bit too... college, if ya know what I mean.   00:27:36 - The Paleopals then attempt to de-obfuscate the trailer for Centurion...

Show notes are a little less traditional than usual this week seeing as we recorded this episode live at the CalAcademy Nigthtlife in San Francisco! The show was fun but fraught with distraction. We told what we were drinking, talked about what would happen if the earth stopped spinning, and the trailer for the week was the etymologically indistinct Green Hornet. All this is interspersed with Nightlifers asking questions and just generally being cool. Finally we bask in the iTunes review left by...

00:00:00 The Paleopals are joined by Ryan North, a computational linguist and creator of Dinosaur Comics (as well as a Canadian).  The Americans have beers and the Canadians have other stuff, some more interesting than beer, and some less so.     00:08:45 Ryan North talks to us about computer using linguists and helps us sort out articles involving computers (supposedly) cracking indecipherable dead languages and how and why to save...

00:00:00 - Ryan is out of character as he demands to keep things moving as the other Paleopals Charlie and Patrick are forced to rush through drinks and a theme.00:03:50 - Patrick is annoyed by the name of a new mega whale, but at least it has more teeth than stupid Sperm Whales (whom also have a weird name, am I right?).00:16:39 - But this week the Paleopals are also on the hunt as they dissect the trailer for Predators. Things get a bit literal and heavy handed.00:27:32 – A new type of scientist...

On the advice of a previous guest of the show and in conjunction with the website Brews and Books (http://www.brewsandbooks.com/) ?Charlie and Ryan take to the streets in what is sure to be an informative and hilarious romp through macro brew science!

00:00:00 - Introducing a previously teased voice but now for a full episode it's Jacob! Two other guys showed up to talk too. 00:07:11 - Charlie is a doctor now, and he's gonna tell you why. Hint: Men are from Mars 00:28:31 - It's the most literal Trailer Trash Talk ever as the guys breakdown the trailer Winnebago Man. 00:43:32 - If you wanted your Winnebago to make it to space, Jacob is...

00:00:00 - The Paleopals can't even get through introductions without Ryan being wrong about something, Charlie correcting him and Patrick presumably knowing all along.00:04:26 - This week's guest is Rick Loverd who works for the Science & Entertainment Exchange as well as writing the comic Berserker for Top Cow. He has a lot to say about his own projects as well as how he fights the good fight to get the best science possible into the media you enjoy every day. A conversation not to be missed...

00:00:00 - This week we're diving right in without a wasted second (... sort of) because we have an awesome guest who's voice you're likely already familiar with, Brian Dunning, host of the podcast Skeptoid, with whom we speak of a many great and numerous things.   00:46:44 - Ryan revisits his more recent childhood while Patrick and Charlie remain lackluster about the latest offering from Pixar, Toy Story 3 in this week's Trailer Trash Talk.   00:56:53 - Whales were once scum-sucking bottom...

This week was the quiz show so we don't have traditional show notes. We get asked about the usual range of subjects covered in the show. Everything from climate change, personal history, lightsaber battles and  dinosaur acoustics.  And of course zombies.   Thanks to everyone who contributed to make this one of the most fun shows to record in a long time. If you didn't get your question answered feel free to yell at us by e-mailing paleopals@sciencesortof.com or going to http://www...

00:00:00 - You may not describe the Paleopals as rich, dark and smooth, but this week their drinks all were. That's something. Isn't it? It's not? Oh, moving on then.   00:04:51 - Birds like conventional wheat better than organic week according to a new study. The Paleopals dance around with this hot potato of a food issue.   00:20:36 - Ryan sounds like a jock during Trailer Trash Talk as he complains about the braniacs who will out-research him once they finish high school in this week's...
