#69: Planes, Bee Brains, and Taxes

Greetings people of the future, we recorded this week’s show on Monday because of the Second Law of Thermodynamics otherwise known as Murphy’s Law. First we talked Michigan income tax, its possible destruction, and the fiscal consequences. Then we buzzed into the surprising complexity and dexterity of Bee Brains in our first science segment in a while. Finally, we closed out the show with talk of Boeing; more specifically whether or not they are pulling their weight in making America Great.
