This week’s episode might sound like a Flaming Lips album title but robot bunnies really are fighting Burmese pythons in the Florida Everglades. With the help of heat pads, perfumes and good old Florida Man.

We bust the myth of the 10k step count and unlock new health loot boxes, and we trace the success of mRNA vaccines during the pandemic to new developments to create a universal vaccine for cancer.

There’s scarier stuff inside. But you’ll have to tune in to find out.
