- Big Ideas broadcasts Paul Davies' "Cosmic Jackpot" lecture (mp3) - "Could the universe have been other than what it is? For some cosmologists the universe appears a little too geared for life. From the humble carbon atom to the speed of light, everything is tailor made to bring us life as we know it. So, is cosmic bio friendliness just good luck? Or is there someone or something pulling the levers?" A brief discussion of his book, "Cosmic Jackpot: Why Our Universe Is Just Right For Life" as well as the concepts of string and multiverse theories.
- Sudhir Venkatesh reads passages from and answers questions about his book, "Gang Leader for a Day: A Rogue Sociologist Crosses The Line" (mp3). You may have read mention of Venkatesh in Freakanomics, but from the sounds of it, "Gang Leader for a Day" sounds like riveting must-read.
