This week we are joined by special guests Kaveh Rastegar and Kaveh Hoda as we learn about the contributions of Chris Frantz to the Talking Heads, an infamous surgery that killed 3 people, and how Santa Monica was once a standoff point between the mob and a future Supreme Court justice. A listener email explains the explosive properties of Chlorine tri-fluoride.
