Volcanoes!
In this episode, we dive deep into the fascinating, unpredictable world of volcanoes! Ray interviews volcanologist Dr. Ariana Soldatti and asks the tough questions, like “Could Anakin Skywalker and Obi Wan Kenobi really have fought a lightsaber duel while surfing down a lava flow like they did in Revenge of the Sith?”
Plus, the Meebs put together a playlist of songs that reflects the sudden, explosive nature of volcanoes by rating their song selections on the Emotional Explosivity Index (in the same way volcanologists rate volcanic eruptions on the Volcanic Explosivity Index).
Finally, our episode concludes with the next installment of our scientific sci-fi, musical radio adventure “The Amoeba People Audio Cartoon”! This week’s installment opens with the Meebs being pulled out of their crashed spaceship, The Improbable, by legendary filmmaker Werner Herzog. What else could possibly go wrong for the Meebs after their 27 light year journey to Earth? Onward!!
