5 Weirdo Hours By Zuckerbaby 1

Crystals are not alive, yet they grow, form complex structures, and even conduct electricity. Could life emerge from crystals rather than carbon-based molecules? Eexplore the intriguing possibility of crystal-based lifeforms, the challenges they would face, and the conditions where they might thrive. We journey to five exotic worlds—Vulcan, Ribbon World, Longenacht, Telluride, and Tempest—each offering unique environments where crystalline life might take hold. Could such life develop naturally, or might humanity one day engineer it? Join us as we dive into the cutting-edge science and speculative possibilities of crystalline biology.

Crystal Aliens: Life, But Not As We Know It (Narration Only)

Hydropower has long been one of the world's most reliable sources of renewable energy, but how will it adapt to the challenges of the 21st century? In this episode, we explore the cutting-edge innovations shaping the future of hydroelectric power—from modular micro-hydro systems and improved pumped storage to tidal, wave, and even deep sea hydroelectric solutions.

The Future of Hydroelectric Power

Are rogue machines lurking in the cosmos, quietly outlasting their creators? We explore the eerie possibility that ancient AI remnants, abandoned or self-replicating, could be hidden throughout the galaxy—watching, waiting, and perhaps even shaping the fate of civilizations.

We've Been Invaded By Aliens... Now What? (Narration Only)

It can be hard to hear a signal 100 miles away—so what does it take to build a beacon loud enough to be heard 100,000 light years away? In this episode, we explore galactic beacons: powerful transmissions that may teach, warn, or outlast the minds that made them.

3 The Grey Lighthouse

A cover of a phenomenal song and a Songs and Stories classic. Written and performed by Idwyn Splitroot, this song is easily recognisable as one of the best, and one to know for singing around the fire. Massive thanks to her <3 Go check out the rest of her stuff! (https://soundcloud.com/gabrielle-joanne-198076671)

At the E4 Virtual Songs and Stories livestream, I performed a cover of this song, and I felt it was one of my best performances I had done of any song ever. So I recorded it, and here we are.
