Hello,
I know you probably think that time travel is better left to the likes of John Titor or Andrew Basiago but this week it's me. Not on this episode, just me writing this note here, for you, because I just had to AI with the lights out because I could have lit this MF'r up for like an hour or so... you'll get it, with time. Anywho here's what I have deemed "good enough" for this weeks episode notes provided to you from a robot brain.. or whatever AI is.
This week, we're diving into a discovery that's making scientists scratch their heads... tiny, rod-shaped RNA entities called "obelisks" lurking in our guts and mouths. These minuscule marvels are so new that researchers are still trying to figure out if they're alive or just really good at playing hide and seek. Dubbed obelisks because of their shape, these genetic oddballs might just be the tiniest tenants in our microbiome, cozying up in bacteria like Streptococcus sanguinis. But what do they do? That's the million-dollar question—or should we say, the billion-bacterium question?
Ps.) isn't the space jazz background music just the fucking best
