Episode 90 - Six Degrees of Yule-mination - 12/21/19
24/12/2019 Duração: 01h20minCelebrate this holiday Six Degrees of Rumination style! Episode 90 is full of Christmas cheer - and a little Christmas caution. Sure, the holidays are awesome and most people love them, but if you're one of those individuals who worries more about the waste Christmas generates than how much joy you're spreading, then boy do we have articles for you! Don't worry, there are plenty of articles about the magic of Christmas too. There's even a website where you can email Santa! This holiday season, Six Degrees will be joining all the other Christmas travelers.

We hope this episode keeps you company during all of your holiday traveling! *shameless self promotion* In this episode, Producer Mike plugged his band- The Bitters- and t

Episode 89 - Octwapolis - 10/17/19
17/10/2019 Duração: 39minWe're almost at Episode 90! We really wanted to get there, so we thought we'd make Episode 89 short. Except for the part where producer Mike talks about Terminator for twenty minutes... After that, Reno explains that plants are renewable and therefore should be eaten by robots, and everyone tries to figure out whether people are growing horns due to cell phone use. Good thing we end on a high note--oh wait. Robots that eat life forms!? What's that growth on your skull? Dogs know when you’re lying Octopus cities Freshwater under the ocean The brain eats itself if chronically sleep-deprived
