Too bad Xiomara and I never met up. I was a huge metal fan at this time and would have loved friends nearby. Well, maybe she wouldn't have respected my love of hair metal bands- lol. I used to cut class in the park on 164th and Grand Concourse. This story made me smile so many times.

I love this Xio! We started talking in.. .what.. 1997?? Crazy. Great photo!

Fantastic podcast! Xiomara is so genuine and funny.

Just bought and read 'Cured'. It's an amazing book. Loved it !

Date labels ("use-by", "sell-by", "best-by", "best if used by," "expires on") are on a lot of products. Forty-one states require a date label on at least some food product but there are huge inconsistencies, not just in the wording, but in the meaning of these labels. Some states require them only on dairy, some on shellfish, some on any perishable foods.

It's become complicated to decipher these dates, or to know how to act on them, for large retailers and individual consumers alike. And despite what many people assume, they are not about food safety, and were actually never meant to be.

Bugle 4001 - Tony The Tiger RIP

Remember the myth of Icarus? He and his dad were trying to escape from prison. Locked up on the Greek island of Crete, they made wings out of  beeswax and bird feathers. They soared to freedom — but Icarus got cocky, flew too close to the sun, and fell into the sea. 

A few thousand years later, NASA is ready to do the job right.

The Parker Solar Probe is scheduled to fly in 2018. The spacecraft has a giant heat shield, tested to withstand 2,500-degree temperatures. 

For something so basic to all of our lives — and fundamental to the science of astronomy — the sun remains surprisingly mysterious. To learn more, Michelle meets up with Nicky Viall, a NASA heliophysicist working on the mission. She describes how direct measurements of the sun’s super-hot plasma, and solar wind, may dramatically enhance our understanding of the star at the center of our lives.  

Orbital Path is produced by David Schulman and edited by Andrea Mustain. Production oversight by John Barth and Genevieve Sponsler. Hosted by Michelle Thaller.

Episode 22: Journey to the Sun
