First show in Madison! Embryos created that have three parents, everyone with blue eyes are distant cousins, rail guns not just for fiction anymore - now the US Navy has tested one, orange flavored lollypops for fighting cavitities, and the asteroid 2007 WD5 barely misses Mars, in astronomical terms. Roundup of the best scientific breakthroughs of 2007, things to look out for in 2008, some yays and woes from President Bush's proposed science budget, and Canada eliminates a key science advisory position. Theme = Music from Carl Sagan's Cosmos, by Vangelis, Isao Tomita, and Toru Takemitsu. Brought to you by Carminic Acid.

Last Davis Show! Battle of the Science Communication Heroes: Ken Miller and PZ Myers discuss and debate the issue of religion and the acceptance of evolution. Then, an unsolicited call from Evil J. Klone reveals a plot behind the takeover attempt of KDRT by KMJE, and then Karl explains what he is going to be doing in Graduate School. Ariela joins the show, and unbeknownst to her, their parents were on the phone. Technical issues were abound throughout the show, but it was nicely salvaged and might be one of the most rememebered shows ever done. That is, Karl pops a big question to Ariela before they move 2,000 miles to start the next phase of their lives. Theme = the best of Karls collection of science fiction music.
