Things get a little weird this episode, and by ‘little’ I mean very little! One thing I learned in this episode is that everything in the universe is touching each other, yet the particles in your body never truly touch!

This Valentine’s Day, what could be better than cuddling up with someone special and listening to the Tangents Crew talk about various medical procedures in gory detail!

Meat... seems pretty simple on the surface, but what do we really know about it? Like.. are living things made of meat? Or is meat only meat once it's being eaten? What was the first meat? What was the first thing to eat the first meat? Is eating prehistoric meat a good idea? Do we find the answer to any of these questions in this episode? I can't remember, frankly, but probably a few.  Follow us on Twitter @SciShowTangents, where we’ll tweet out topics for upcoming episodes and you can ask the science couch questions!  While you're at it, check out the Tangents crew on Twitter: Stefan: @itsmestefanchin Ceri: @ceriley Sam: @slamschultz Hank: @hankgreen If you want to learn more about any of our main topics, check out these links: [Truth or Fail] Foal https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/scientists-extracted-liquid-blood-42000-year-old-foal-found-siberian-permafrost-180971979/ Bison https://www.uaf.edu/museum/press/spotlight/blue-babe/ https://historythings.com/aged-beef-delicacy-eating-meat-36000-year-old-bison/ https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/ancient-bison-stew-blue-babe-alaska Crocodile https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/ancient-egyptians-hunted-then-mummified-crocodiles-180973197/ [Fact Off] Carnivorous Herbivores https://bioone.org/journals/Northwestern-Naturalist/volume-99/issue-3/NWN18-05.1/Scavenging-By-Snowshoe-Hares-iLepus-americanusi-In-Yukon-Canada/10.1898/NWN18-05.1.short https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/when-herbivores-arent-poor-chicken-got-eaten-cow-180951115/ https://bioone.org/journals/Northwestern-Naturalist/volume-99/issue-3/NWN18-05.1/Scavenging-By-Snowshoe-Hares-iLepus-americanusi-In-Yukon-Canada/10.1898/NWN18-05.1.short https://www.outdoornews.com/2015/03/19/who-knew-tape-shows-deer-raiding-birds-nests/ Dyeing Salmon https://www.adfg.alaska.gov/index.cfm?adfg=wildlifenews.view_article&articles_id=738 https://nextnature.net/2012/06/dyeing-salmon-pink-for-farms-and-profit https://www.seattlepi.com/news/article/The-salmon-struggle-A-fish-by-any-other-color-is-1115339.php [Ask the Science Couch] Gamey meat https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0309174015301376 https://extension.umn.edu/preserving-and-preparing/cooking-venison-flavor-and-safety https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6154429/ https://bastyr.edu/news/general-news-health-tips-spotlight-1/2015/08/why-choose-grass-fed-meat http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.361.2312&rep=rep1&type=pdf [Butt One More Thing] Pork butt https://www.southernliving.com/bbq/why-is-it-called-boston-butt https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/22382/how-9-cuts-meat-got-their-names Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
