Could it be that dire wolves are no longer extinct? Researchers at Colossal Biosciences claim to have accomplished de-extinction of these long extinct wolves. Adam looks at the authenticity of their claims and examines what exactly they did to create these so called dire wolves. Then Darren does another book review roundup, looking at Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks by Yuval Noah Harari, Stoicism: How to Use Stoic Philosophy to Find Inner Peace and Happiness Paperback by Jason Hemlock, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Made Simple: 10 Strategies for Managing Anxiety, Depression, Anger, Panic, and Worry by Seth J.
