This closing segment asks listeners for feedback rather than explaining new science: the hosts invite requests on which topic from the episode (Golden Goose Awards, Nobel Prize season, or the space missions discussed) deserves a full deep dive, and ask listeners to share their favorite past episode. The rest is banter about Chelsea and Arsenal football and a sign-off.

1:02:20in our half break week where we wanted to have a little bit of fun, talk about some of our favorite history. I'm gonna ask two questions for those who may still be watching. We're keeping this almost exactly at an hour. This is record time. [laughter] The YAP sesh is going to cut at record time. The two questions I have is of all of the things we covered today, which one of them do you want us to do a deep dive on? Like the Nobels is happening. Uh are folks interested in the Golden Goose Awards? Uh do they want us to look at any of these space missions and get a little bit more deep into what's going on there? Uh, so that's question number one. Then question number two, for

1:03:00potential longtime listeners, what's your favorite episode? >> Yes, >> we talked about some of our favorite episodes. I would love to know uh what brought you to the show. What was one where you're like, "Oh, this was fire. This is this this you guys were in your bag on this episode." >> Um, >> it helps us >> it helps us know kind of where to go and what to do. Um, but again, uh, kind of like the rundown format for those who've come the show for a while where we touch on different things and give you a little smorgish board. That was the goal for this episode. At some point in the future when we have the ability to do so, a deep dive a week and a rundown a week would be ideal. >> Yeah. >> So you get to know exactly what's

1:03:42happening at the frontier right when it happens. But then you still get the best part of the show which is the real first principles deep dive which in my view is like that's our that's our uh Michelin star dish. >> Yeah. >> Uh you can't get anywhere else because this is the best science show on the planet. I'm Lester Nar joined as always by my co-host and our resident PhD Krishna Chowdery. We are going to get out of your hair. We hope you all enjoyed your Labor Day weekend. We are about to go into ours up the Chelse. Can you believe it? It's unbelievable. Arsenal, it's unbelievable. I I don't know what to tell you. You thought just

1:04:22cuz you beat us for the last 5 years meant that you were just going to stomp all over us in your own house. I'm sorry to tell you times have changed. Enzo Fernandez, who needs him? He can go to Man City. It's fine. We don't need him. Y'all thought our center Oh, we're going to get Chance. Oh, we have a good team. It's a good team. We had a great transform. >> Wait, so is Enzo not coming back to Tuls? >> He's not. It's okay. >> It's okay. >> There's a lot of drama around it, which we're not going to get into because this is not a this is not a sports show, but there's some great drama. >> Well, I didn't I didn't like him anyways. >> We got $125 million for him. >> Yeah, that's pretty good. >> Look, >> and you got rid of Enzo and he didn't want he didn't want to be there. Look, if you don't want to play for the Blues

1:05:03for the badge, if you don't want to play for this, that's okay. We get it. Move on. >> You wanted to go to Real Madrid and you ended up in Man City. I don't know what to tell you. You guys are probably going to get re relegated for your crimes against the league because of all your cheating. So look look when we see Enzo Fernandez next season in the championship. I'm just look and we're going to win the Prem. We're going to be world champions from the FIFA World Club World Cup and we're going to be Prem champions and you know unlike Arsenal, we have a Champions League. You know I I don't know what to tell you. I'm sorry for your loss. Uh you're going to come to the Stanford Bridge and you're also going to lose. [laughter] I'm done. We will see you all next week. Yeah.
