Episode 70 02/26/17 - Eighteen armed Canadian Bacon Baby - with guest Cody Tudor

February 27, 2017

Six Degrees welcomes guest Cody Tudor, and quickly degenerates into a frank and appetizing discussion about cannibalism. Other topics included are human pig chimeras, gene editing, the health benefits of dragon's blood (...Komodo Dragons...), and the latest venture from Elon Musk.
