00:00:00 Intro and What are you Drinking: The Paleopals are
drinking a wide variety of beverages this week and Africa sneaks
back into the show (nearly unnoticed.
00:02:43 Oxytocin. All your relationship problems might be
solved with just a little extra oxytocin. Or, you might just
turn into a naked mole rat; it's too soon to tell. The
hormone might also explain why you can't seem to get along with
your siblings during thanksgiving.
00:18:48 Trailer Trash Talk - Avatar. The Paleopals have been
holding this one back waiting for the perfect time to pass judgment
on James Cameron's remake of Dances with Wolves (in space).
Turns out this is the week. Lucky you. We discuss
floating minerals and CG romance, then we reach a conclusion.
But you'll have to listen to find out if we are long or short on
this one. C'mon we even have time stamps now.
00:29:48 Babies Cry with Accents. Patrick records his recent
offspring for our listening pleasure. Hard to place the
accent but maybe she sounds a little like Zsa Zsa Gabor? We
teach you how to tell if you've adopted a French or German baby and
also what floor to avoid if you are staying in a Ch inese
hotel.
00:41:39 Odd man out - Superman Red Son. Did Superman's
spaceship land in the USSR instead of the USA. No, but it be
a whole lot cooler if he had. Ryan and Justin leave Patrick
out of Superman: Red
Son. They teach Patrick what the world would have been
like if the Man of Steel had grown up behind the Iron
Curtain. Also, the book deals with why Superman and Lex
Luthor are destined not to get along (and it has nothing to do with
their oxytocin levels)
