I think Afterlyfe.me is going to be pretty cool, if only for the sheer novelty of it. After all, novelty is the lifeblood of the internet. The IBM Watson sorta shows that it’s totally plausible to have some sorta AI that can broadly grasp at a persons interests in the near future.
Also, I had heard about the Georgia Guidestones before, but never heard the actual inscriptions. Best idea on it: “Unite humanity with a living new language.” Because we all know humanity has never been so petty that we start wars over which one, singular, set of ideas overrides all others.
Edit: lol, didn’t realize that would link to afterlyfe, but I think I’ll just leave it.

In the podcast you mentioned the shark outside the MacDonalds in Queensland but I have heard of something creepier. I can’t find the source but I recently heard of how some of the very old houses in Queensland having been built on stilts because of storms like this in the past and so some people found themselves dry but stranded in these buildings. Sounds kind of cozy if you have plenty of food and water right? Now picture being stuck in one of these houses with MASSIVE and agressive poisonous snakes banging their heads and bodies against the windows, floor boards and walls trying to get in. And it might take animal control some time to reach you given the situation – if your cell phone works. Apparently this has actually been happening.
Think I would start praying to the ghost of Steve Erwin at that point.

Hi guys, I was wondering when the next episode might be out? Are you guys going back to once a month? I really appreciate all the research that goes into the show and the difficulty of making sure all your schedules match up. Really looking forward to it. Cheers.
