FULL EPISODE: Why Your Brain Needs to Feel - November 17, 2025
Chaotic foreign correspondent Tony Five descends on the program and tells David about a Florida man arrested after a chicken-egg argument ended in gunfire outside of a pub. Tony talks about visiting Canada. (If you have suggestions about what Tony should do in Canada, email tony@lastshow.pizza.) Kinesiology and neuroscience professor Craig Chapman explains how lack of touch impairs hand-eye co-ordination, and how his research sets the groundwork for VR and prosthetics that feels real. Economics professor Søren Leth-Petersen reveals how mothers think they will return to work quickly after maternity leave, but then how the reality is different. Dr. Laura Duvall and Linhan Dong from the Department of Biological Sciences at Columbia University share how altering mosquitoes' internal clocks stops them from biting. Lichenologist Diane Haughland gives details of the thirteen new species of fungi newly discovered in Alberta, Canada. Criminal justice and criminology professor Amelie Pedneault conveys how college women face a 75% higher risk of sexual violence than non-students. Workplace psychology professor Craig Jackson touches on the following: Committed a workplace gaffe? You will survive it (and you may even get promoted); and Do weighted blankets work for anxiety? Here's what the evidence shows.
