Join us for the story of the Passenger Pigeon - America’s most prolific bird that flocked in the billions until we discovered they were easy to kill and also delicious. Within 100 years, they went from blocking out the sun with their flocks to being totally extinct. Learn their history and the possibility of their future with de-extinction technology. Listener poll: Should we bring back dinosaurs? Farz says 100% yes, Taylor says we’ve been through this, and it’s never a good idea.
