Coming up to bat, we have four scicomm stories from the news. First, we talk about psychedelic substance use in the Bronze Age. Next, we're re-examining the origin of horses in indigenous communities in North America. To round out the first half, we have our favorite new segment where Dr. Diem clears up the fusion confusion. In the second half, we're looking at sports in the climate era, where Jason laments the death of baseball, James relives a Red October to remember, and Steffi thinks about life in the white tent.
