This week’s episode of The Amoeba People Radio Hour is an “Extended Playlist Edition” of our show. Each week we cover a topic form both a musical and scientific perspective and every episode we compile a playlist of songs inspired by that week’s topic. For this episode we decided to extend the playlist format and spend the entire episode playing our picks in their entirety (which we ordinarily don’t have time for). This week’s topic for the Extended Playlist Edition is GRAVITY!
