Drawing on cutting-edge research from artificial intelligence, materials science, and quantum physics, Tucker explores how learning is not confined to the human brain, or ...

"The Moose with the Juice" invites listeners on an enchanting journey with Marissa the moose and her friends as they discover a magical spring in the forest. The story subtly emphasizes the value of moderation and the significance of health as they come across the sweet, magical juice that the spring created from the fruits of the trees around it.

In that transition period of 1876, some of the Native Americans took to the reservations, while many did not. Some put up one hell of a fight.

The Druids ruled in government, religion, and other positions of power until the Romans showed up in what was called Briton. With cruel intent, the Romans spread vicious rumors about sacrifice and butchery until the Druids were a diminished clan in hiding. The Romans thought they ended that reign, pulled out in the fifth century, and maybe so, but they opened the door to evolution. There were, at that time, hardly noticed, hundreds of Sorcerers playing low key and pulling strings from the shadows. If the two should meet... Fodder for #The Storyteller, of course. Enjoy.

Scientists and explorers have known of the Richat Structure, the Eye of the Sahara, for nearly a century.

It was in 2005 that an astronaut on a spacewalk, the first to see the thing in such detail, brought real attention to it. It was not just a patch of rocks in the Sahara. It was a series of concentric circles some forty kilometers in diameter, or about twenty-five miles. The question became, "What is it?" or, "Is it dangerous to the locale, or to ...
