This week: I talk to Rebecca Sharrock, who's autobiographical memory is so good she remembers being in the womb. Insane. I have to be VERY careful what I say because it will never be forgotten:

Have you ever considered the monumental amount of waste that humans produce? Have you ever stopped to consider what waste really is? In this episode, we discuss fatburgs, cardboard furniture, crap in a can that is pegged to the gold standard.
