Genetics and Stuff: A beetle was genetically engineered to have a third functioning eye! We learn about how many genes are involved in creating a single organ, and how manipulating just one of these genes will produce vast changes. Steven believes that this experiment is a stepping stone to the goal of eventually growing replacement organs.

Star Trek Discovery: We have a long talk about the mid-season finale of Star Trek Discovery. Devon believes the show is going to be more exploration focused and Steven thinks the whole thing is going "Rick and Morty" multi-verse hopping madness. Devon is still watching and enjoying The Orville.

Book Club: We chat about several books, Oryx and Crake, Alias Grace, Artimis and Infinite.

Utopia or Dystopia?: Would cheap organ replacements give us a utopia or dystopia?
