We teamed up with award-winning filmmaker — and secret evolutionary biologist — Lucy Cooke, for a high-energy discussion about sloths, and frogs, and many other down-trodden and unloved species of animals; making films that entertain and educate; and all sorts of other stuff, including some insider talk about Richard Dawkins & David Attenborough. We also were briefly reminded of the limits of technology and laptop battery lives.
To find out about Lucy’s larger documentaries that have been produced and broadcast in many venues, an online search should amply reward you. Smaller videos that she posts online can be found here: http://vimeo.com/user2714304/videos .

They physicists gang up on Joanne, when we’re joined by Mario Livio, whose most recent book is “Brilliant Blunders : From Darwin to Einstein – Colossal Mistakes by Great Scientists That Changed Our Understanding of Life and the Universe”, and Michael Brooks, whose most recent book is “Free Radicals : The Secret Anarchy of Science”. We discuss the audacious idea that scientists are actually people, too, and that science is a human enterprise and mistakes regularly happen.
