About this episode
SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: http://www.naturebox.com/thinkingatheist
This podcast is a digression from our usual subject matter...a romp through the interesting explanations of random sayings, occurrences, facts and traditions. What makes a cat purr? Why do weddings have a "best man?" Why do tennis scores use "love" instead of "zero?" Why do people choose chopsticks over the fork? Why is it "soccer" in America and "football" in Europe? Can a human live for any length of time exposed in space? Etc.
We won't change the world with this show, but as seekers of knowledge (even trivial knowledge), we'll learn some interesting stuff, and we'll have some fun together. Enjoy
