Welcome to Intercosmos with me, David Eagleman.

I'm a neuroscientist and an author at Stanford,

and in these episodes, we sail deeply into our three-pound universe

to understand why and how our lives look the way they do.

I'm Soledad O'Brien, and on my new true crime podcast, Murder on the Tooth Path, I'm taking you back to 1964

to the cold case of artist Mary Pinch O' Meyer. She had been shot twice in the head and in the back.

John F. Kennedy.

Listen to Murder on the Toothatch with Soledat O'Brien on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,

We love learning about this extraordinary universe.

I'm Daniel. I'm a particle physicist, and I think our universe is absolutely extraordinary.

I'm Kelly Weiner-Smith. I study parasites.

And there's just endless things

about this universe that I find fascinating.

Basically, we're both nerds.
