Episode 91 - Thank You 2019 - 12/31/19

Six Degrees rings in the New Year just as you’d expect – with a wide selection of science articles ranging from zany to outright f*cked up!   We discuss everything from the age you discover the meaning of life to what elderly female whales do when their reproductive years are at an end.  Oh, there's also a fair amount on what new horrors the overuse of technology may have in store for us, a story about a baby being buried alive, and we reveal a drug that's wreaking more havoc than the opioid crisis.

But you know, it's just another episode in the life of Six Degrees <3
