We come with tough news. The layoffs at NPR are impacting our show. Moving forward, we'll be in your feed 3 days a week. Please show our #NPRShortWave team the same love you always have. We'll still be making the same nerdy, newsy science show you know and count on.

When I asked Team @NPRShortWave: "What's your favorite kind of pie?" Their answers were most revealing. "Humble," said @travlinscientst, who produced this episode. How typical Berly. Humble-seeming, but secretly abundant. Kind of medieval. Also, answers in pun.
