Hello again and thanks for checking out today’s podcast from DailySplice. We’re talking about cool stories from the podosphere as usual today. We’ll be chatting about such things as teleportation and Iraqi school closures.

How Smoke Works

BrainStuff from HowStuffWorks.com: 2 - 3 min.; Published occasionally

BrainStuff from HowStuffWorks.com is a short podcast that explains how scientific or natural phenomena work. This episode discusses smoke and the components of wood and what happens to it as it burns. Other episodes in this series cover other interesting topics such as rainbows, cold viruses, and the little dimples in a golf ball.

Canadian Snow Days vs. Iraqi War Days

UNICEF: 3 min. Produced twice per week.

An interview with a 16 year old student in Iraq reveals that the Iraqi version of a snow day isn’t quite as fun as they are in Canada. When there is a lot of gunfire, schools get closed, but there is no going outside to play with friends. The kids stay at home hiding with their families for days at a time, and can only talk to their friends by phone. It’s also tough to study for exams with all the noise and the pits of fear in guts.

Iceland’s Clean Machines

Nova PBS: 4 - 5 min. Produced weekdays

This episode discusses Iceland’s progress at creating a hydrogen economy. Because fossil fuels are so expensive in Iceland, finding alternative sources of energy is very attractive. Iceland’s capital city, Reykjavík, has a hydrogen fueling station but very few cars use it. Iceland is hoping to have developed a hydrogen economy by the middle of the century, which is much sooner than most industrialized nations’ targets.
