WEBVTT - Trailer: Daniel and Kelly's Extraordinary Universe

0:00:03.240 --> 0:00:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Hey, everyone, we want to tell you about our new podcast,

0:00:06.280 --> 0:00:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Daniel and Kelly's Extraordinary Universe. Hi.

0:00:09.039 --> 0:00:11.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm Daniel. I'm a particle physicist, and I think our

0:00:11.480 --> 0:00:15.960
<v Speaker 2>universe is absolutely extraordinary. I work Ancern, smashing particles together

0:00:15.960 --> 0:00:17.760
<v Speaker 2>to try to figure out how it all works, from

0:00:17.760 --> 0:00:20.319
<v Speaker 2>particles to black holes, and to try to unravel some

0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:24.040
<v Speaker 2>of the big mysteries like dark matter and dark energy. Hello.

0:00:24.120 --> 0:00:27.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm Kelly Wienersmith. I have trouble explaining to my parents

0:00:27.560 --> 0:00:31.120
<v Speaker 1>what it is that I do exactly, but at various

0:00:31.160 --> 0:00:34.200
<v Speaker 1>times it's involved jumping into dump trucks full of dead

0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:38.200
<v Speaker 1>fish under a summer sun, long debates over international space law,

0:00:38.360 --> 0:00:41.720
<v Speaker 1>co discovering a parasitoid wasp that emerges through its hosts

0:00:41.760 --> 0:00:45.000
<v Speaker 1>head which is totally mental, and writing science trivia cards

0:00:45.080 --> 0:00:48.360
<v Speaker 1>and well other stuff too. Also with a last name

0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:51.559
<v Speaker 1>like Wienersmith, I have a lot of practice laughing at

0:00:51.560 --> 0:00:53.880
<v Speaker 1>myself and the general absurdity of life.

0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:56.520
<v Speaker 2>Well, you forgot to say that you're also the upcoming

0:00:56.560 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 2>president of the American Society of Parasitologists, A Hugo Award

0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:03.320
<v Speaker 2>winner and a two time New York Times bestselling author.

0:01:03.400 --> 0:01:07.560
<v Speaker 1>Kelly Well you forgot, Daniel that you're a Fulbright Fellow,

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:12.720
<v Speaker 1>Sloan Fellow, American Physical Society Fellow, and a Webby Award

0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:17.000
<v Speaker 1>winner and a Daytime Any nominee for your science show

0:01:17.000 --> 0:01:17.600
<v Speaker 1>on PBS.

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:20.720
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well, basically, we're both nerds. We love learning

0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:24.360
<v Speaker 2>about this extraordinary universe, and we love sharing what we've learned.

0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:25.520
<v Speaker 2>So that's what we're going to do.

0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Our new podcast, Daniel and Kelly's Extraordinary Universe, is all

0:01:29.959 --> 0:01:34.200
<v Speaker 1>about the mind blowing discoveries we've made about this crazy,

0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:38.920
<v Speaker 1>beautiful cosmos, from the tiniest particles to the biggest blue whales.

0:01:39.000 --> 0:01:41.360
<v Speaker 2>It's also about all of the extraordinary things we have

0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:44.440
<v Speaker 2>yet to discover, the size of the universe, the true

0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:48.160
<v Speaker 2>nature of space and time, the existence of extraterrestrials, and

0:01:48.240 --> 0:01:50.520
<v Speaker 2>whether there's dark matter floating around Uranus.

0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Was that a joke? I don't know. I love it.

0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:55.480
<v Speaker 1>Each Tuesday and Thursday, we take an hour long dive

0:01:55.600 --> 0:01:58.680
<v Speaker 1>into some science topic, during which time I try to

0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:01.640
<v Speaker 1>suppress by biologists training and keep the poop jokes to

0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:02.280
<v Speaker 1>a minimum.

0:02:02.320 --> 0:02:05.160
<v Speaker 2>So find out what qualifies as minimum poop jokes to

0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 2>a biologist and a dark matter physicist and learn all

0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:12.440
<v Speaker 2>about our amazing and beautiful universe on Daniel N. Kelly's

0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Extraordinary Universe every Tuesday and Thursday on the iHeartRadio app,

0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:18.519
<v Speaker 2>Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
