Miraculous New Cure for Missing Scientific Banter on Wednesday Nights

Hi all! Just ran across this article in The New York Times. It's exciting to see such complicated scientific issues being addressed in such a quotidian publication and heralded by America's famous youth!

When most people miss their favorite radio show, they spit, curse, act passive aggressively towards coworkers, and sink into mild ruts of depression. But thanks to an exciting new discovery by scientists, the everyday layperson can cure complications caused by aural absence during live broadcasted radio shows.

The discovery, announced in last month's edition of the peer-reviewed Biochemical Pathways, Cybernetwarbial Electropulses, allows listeners to access hour-long sound recordings via internet hub devices. NASA scientist Lorn Caligophilus, who headed the team of innovators who developed this new technology, claims that the web presence of radiowave transmitted episodic periodicals will change the way Americans despair about missing radio programs.

"This is a significant advance in the field, not only because it alters the disseminative properties of radio shows, but because of its ability to prevent despair and self-loathing for those who are not able to listen to radio shows as they are being broadcasted live," Dr. Caligophilus commented Wednesday.

While there has been conflict among the development team about the nomenclature of the new product, former vice president, esteemed popular media figure, and NASA scientist team member Al Gore expressed confidence about this new technology's potential.

"It's gonna be called podcasting, it's gonna be ill, and it's coming to an internet near you," said Mr. Gore.

As part of the beta-testing phase, the scientific community has unanimously selected Scientific Banter, the most relevant radio show about science that exists, to lead America into the new age of "podcasting" radiophonic technology.

Show cohosts DJ Disingenuous and MC Hall could not be reached for comment, but starlet Taylor Swift expressed excitement about the development via her Twitter account.

"wtf kanye. also scientificbanter.mypodcast.com bitches!!!!!!!" tweeted Swift.

Have a great Thursday, everyone!
