Alice Vernon’s new book 'Ghosted: A History of Ghost Hunting and Why We Keep Looking' is a social and historical journey through the world of paranormal investigation. From Victorian séances to modern haunted hotspots, it explores why we’re irresistibly drawn to ghosts and why the hunt for the unexplained is far from over.

Lazy Coders! For this month's bonus episode join Dan, Leon, and Halina as they take you on a tour through brains bigger than their own, diving into breakthrough thought experiments, full-on quantum particle weirdness, and the increasingly obvious proof that humanity is already speed-walking along the simulation track.

Mary Roach is a bestselling science writer and explorer of the the odd corners of science that most people wouldn’t dare to investigate. Cadavers, sex labs, space junk, you name it.

Her new book, Replaceable You, takes that curiosity inside the body itself, exploring the world of prosthetics, organ printing, regenerative medicine, and the scientists trying to rebuild (or upgrade) the human parts we lose. From stem-cell “hair nurseries” to xeno-pig organ farms, Roach uncovers the strange, brilliant future of becoming a “new” you.
