Episode 2: Zombies were people too
Can werewolves be sexy? Should they even try? Zombies invade computational sciences, we milk Europe for all it’s worth, and a ‘critical’ look at Blacklight Power’s claim to harvest energy by pushing Hydrogen electrons below their ground state.
- We lead off with Blacklight Power’s attempt to give us loads of cheap energy, or to scam us. Find a critical analysis of Blacklight power’s claim here. Watch a supposedly independent validation of the process here. Or, visit their website.
- We delve into the origin of dairy farming in Europe and learn about lactase persistence. One popular press look at the issue can be found here. Alternatively you can read the scientific article for yourself.
- For Trailer Trash Talk this week it was two werewolf movies. We watched the Meet Jacob Black trailer for New Moon, the latest installment of the Twilight series. We compare and contrast with of a remake of the classic The Wolfman (we watched trailer 1).
You can get your tickets here if you are dying to see Twilight Saga’s New Moon and you’re worried about sold out theaters. - We close out the show with solid information on what to do in the coming zombie apocalypse. You can’t get this information just anywhere. Read up on how not to catch zombie here. If you like zombies as much as we do then you are gonna want some of this gear.
- Bump music included playing with the loops in Garageband and a real gem by Jonathan Coulton called Re: Your Brains. Obviously, this last choice was inspired by our survival of the zombie plague.

there are two results for a werewolf/vampire combo…. There is the werepyre which is a werewolf who is bitten by a vampire forcing it to be a constant giant bat wolf like creature. If a Vampire is bitten by a werewolf, most of the time around a solstice or equinox, however, 1 of two things happen the vampire dies as it is assumed that the living infection kills off the vampires undeadness, or the vampire is returned to life (yeah it doesn’t make sense to me either but thats what the myth is) and only becomes a werepyre every full moon.
