Koalas are less stressed in green cities, SpaceX Crew Dragon docks with the ISS, stressed meerkat daughters are more helpful, and even more evidence for Planet Nine.
Tree-hugging koalas stay cool, gum tree genome sequenced, and ISEE-3 probe returns after 36 years. Claims of the Turing test being passed, the affects of gut bacteria on malnutrition and an ark for yeast cultures.
Mining asteroids, doggy brain scans, endangered koalas, liver-related jetlag, and more!

I have enjoyed this podcast b/c it is very funny banter about science stories but there is also a serious edge to the analysis. It's proof that you can be amusing and entertaining as well as giving the science content its due. Highly recommended weekly listening.
