PODCAST: Stuff you should know

I’ve become a fan of this podcast (iTunes link), which comes from the writers at HowStuffWorks.com.   A couple of times a week, they talk for about five-minutes (with a great sense of humour)  about a new article from the site.   It’s an easy way to learn a little bit about topics that you probably never thought much about.  If you find a topic particularly interesting, you can go to the site for a more detailed article and links to other resources.

Some recent topics include:

  • How manufacturing water works. (iTunes link)
  • How death-proof cars work. (link)
  • Why does toothpaste make orange juice taste bad? (link)
  • Can I Survive a Shark Attack by Gouging Out Its Eyes? (link)
  • Does Gum Stay in your Stomach for Seven Years? (link)
