Oh there’s a lot of off-the-cuff/improvised stuff for sure! But the structure of every episode is very much scripted. Also I’m sorry some douche downvoted you, you’re not at all wrong.
I agree that the structure is very planned. Definitely a lot of intentional decisions going on there. Thanks for the validation! Sometimes Lemmy puzzles me with the things people are so quick to dispute, and often it's really just a matter of describing things slightly differently like we did here.
Radiolab is SO GOOD THO. If you haven’t listened to “Loops”, please do! It’s so hilarious and interesting.
“The Living Room” made both my partner and myself cry, as well.
Oh, also the episode where they discuss the symbiosis in forests and how in a sense the forest is almost like a super organism. So fascinating!
One of the best! So incredible!
(Also I just noticed your name. When I was a young’un, I had Dick Tracy bedsheets.)
It really is such a good show. I forget so many episodes until I listen to them again years later! I think I've heard both of those, judging by their summaries online but I can't be sure right off. My memory is crap but I always have loved the episode where they talk about color and how different animals experience it. I've listened to it maybe 3 times and it gives me chills each time. So damned good.
Yesss! I JUST MINUTES AGO commented on a post about Mantis Shrimp, replying to a comment with a comic about how they have TONS of cones and can see sooooo many more colors than we can comprehend.
“I’ve seen some of the colors they can see! I can still imagine them.
