Buttholes may be the key to human evolution. It might sound insane, but the need for animals to evolve relied on us being a "tube" - what makes us a tube? Having a mouth and an anus.

Today we will explain the science of buttholes. We will explain how they work, some fascinating facts and also relate them to your life now - and how they evolved millions of years ago.

Donald Trump's administration is playing out Project 2025 in REAL TIME. It is having horrifying impacts on the science community. He has frozen funding and taken away grants for scientists across America. This is a MUST listen podcast about the state of science in America. If he continues what he is doing, science will implode, medicine will implode, and hospitals will close - causing chaos. That could be his intention, but why?
Today we talk to Dr. Nikki Maphis about what is going on, her personal relationship to this story - as well as her fascinating research into Alzheimer's disease.
