Very clear & informative. There is a whole world out there most of us were not aware of.

And I would predict would be very inspiring to a younger generation who would be intrigued enough to want to explore science and become a scientist.

~ 57 min: "I think if you just hav a little bit of curiosity about the world that you live in..." As lealbrazil wrote: absolutely captivating. A 71 minute episode that took a while to finish because I would interrupt with Google searches. polinton virus is a good one, or any name mentioned.

What an amazing episode. I so enjoyed it, I am listening a second time.😊

Wow! An emerging understanding of something that was barely discussed at all in my first microbiology text back in 1990. And some utter jerks are wondering if science has reached its limits. Ha! There's always something more to be found and to find -- even when you're not quite certain what it is you're looking for. Dedication and serendipity seem to be handmaidens.

We must never forget when they coerced the children for use as shields to temporarily and marginally "protect" adults.,,,
