#070 - Kale Me Maybe

Strange Realm

Tonight we bring you a health-minded episode coupled with distressing news as we first correct the record on the recent Chinese Moon mission collecting soil from the dark side of the Moon, then we look into the alleged health benefits of the "superfood" kale, as well as how chocolate and red wine are good for your health while travelling in space! Then we turn to perhaps unwelcome news that Bill Gates is building a nuclear power plant in Wyoming, and it seems China has made a robot that operates controlled by a lab-grown "organoid" brain! All of this and then after the break, we continue our reading series as Frobisher reads more from "Our Haunted Planet," by John A. Keel.
