ЗА ТОЗИ ПОДКАСТ 🔗
Strange Bites is a short science podcast. Lance Martin takes a real discovery in biology, physics, neuroscience, genetics, anthropology, or paleontology and explains it in about fifteen minutes, with just enough story to make the facts stick.New episodes twice a week.
Recent bites include a brain built from two lineages, bacteria that grow their own wires, a gene that can still jump, and fossils that may have been an animal’s compass. Sources are in the show notes. The science is not simplified past recognition. It is told so you can follow it.
If you want weird science, new discoveries, and a science podcast you can finish on a walk, start anywhere. Stay strange. Question everything.

ПОСЛЕДЕН ЕПИЗОД 🔗
A diamond the size of a small pebble, floating in a laboratory in Okinawa, moved because the electrons inside it changed their spin. Not because someone pushed it. Not because a magnet was switched on in the ordinary way. Because billions of tiny quantum magnets, trapped in defects in the crystal, …

ПРЕДИШНИ ЕПИЗОДИ 🔗
Most stars cannot be green. That has been the rule for as long as anyone has thought carefully about the colors of the sky. Temperature sets the color. Cool stars lean orange. Stars like the Sun are white or pale yellow. The hottest are blue-white. Green sits in a gap that ordinary stellar physics …
A black hole does not care how big it is when it decides to burp. That is the finding, stripped to one sentence. Whether the hole is about ten times the mass of the Sun or millions of times heavier, it appears to launch its powerful jets at the same point in its feeding cycle. The critical mark is …
About ninety-nine million years ago, in a forest that is now northern Myanmar, a small lizard made a decision that is still sitting in a piece of amber. Something came for it. The lizard dropped its tail. The tail did not come off by accident. The break is clean, the muscle ring is still there, and…
Somewhere under the Atlantic, in mud that has not seen daylight since the Cretaceous, there is a needle smaller than a speck of dust. It is made of magnetite, the same iron mineral a compass desires, but it is not a compass you could hold. It’s about the size of a bacterial cell and its magnetism i…
There is a gene in you that was supposed to have retired. It learned a job in the brain, the kind of job a settled gene is allowed to keep, and then it refused to sit down. Most of the old movers in the human genome are fossils. This one kept the knife.
The gene is called BC200. It is expressed mai…
On October 5, 2026, in Stockholm, the Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet gave the Prize in Physiology or Medicine to three people who never set out to build a remote control for memory. Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann, and Georg Nagel share it “for their discoveries concerning light-gated ion …
Put a finger on the back of your neck.
Not hard. Just enough to feel the pulse.
That pulse is not a thought. It is an older employee. It keeps the heart honest. It keeps the lungs from quitting mid-sentence. It will still be on the clock when the part of you that writes poems has gone to bed. For …
You can hear a heart from across a room if the room is quiet enough. A wet drum in the dark that has been keeping time since before you had a name. Most of the time it does the job without asking for applause. Sixty to a hundred beats a minute. In. Out. Squeeze. Rest. A little electric spark jumps …
Close your eyes for a second. Not all the way. Just enough that the world goes soft. Behind those lids is a piece of your brain that crawled forward during evolution and learned how to drink light. Those cells, the ones that grab photons and fire them down a cable into your skull, are some of the m…
