Our second episode of this year is fascinating.  What do phenotypes, COVID, Cancer, Spiderman, and Jurassic Park have in common?  Well, we talk about almost all of this in the episode, but I bring up Spiderman now, and the Peter Parker principle (With great power comes great responsibility....)

We welcome back Shannon Rich (@richones1), a regular on this show and a constant boost of energy and cynicism.  Jane Bach (@janebach) also returns for this episode, with a great song that hints at the subtext of our conversation.

Jane was kind enough to send me a fabulous recording of "I Am One" written by Jane Bach, Sandra Piller, Jeanie McQuinn. Vocals by Briana Tyson.
