    Dec 21 2023

    On this episode, we take a look at the history of Santa Claus, how we got to where we are today, and who actually owns Santa Claus. It was also an excuse for Michael/Michelle to geek out about Santa, as they are just as excitable as Buddy The Elf about Christmas and Santa.

  • 13. What's the Deal with H.P. Lovecraft's Copyright?
    Oct 3 2023

    On this episode, Michael/Michelle gushes about one of their favourite genre of horror: Cosmic Horror, and what it is about it that makes it so fun and also, not so fun.

    The first part of the episode goes into who H.P. Lovecraft, the inventor of the genre was and the tropes / characters he created. The second part looks at why anyone can use these characters he created and how copyright and trademarking doesn't apply. Finally, we get into why H.P. was not a great guy and actually how his work really isn't all that great after all.

  • 11: Books or eReaders: What's Better for the Environment?
    Sep 5 2023

    We've all heard the argument that electronic materials are better than printed, but how does that stack up to the research? We dive deep into the numbers to finally put this question to bed: What's better for the environment, printed books, or eReaders?


    We consulted a lot of different sources for this episode, so here are a few of those articles and papers:

    https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/interactive/2010/04/04/opinion/04opchart.html

  • 10. Can I Eat The Mona Lisa?
    Aug 22 2023

    We all know The Mona Lisa is a snack, so why can someone with enough money just buy and eat her? On this week's episode, we dive into the concept of Intellectual Property within the commerce of art, as well as the physiological ramifications of consuming oil paintings.

    In the end, you shouldn't eat those priceless paintings, you should eat those who have amassed enough wealth to be able to buy a priceless painting.
