Always Wondered - Episode 79 Preview

In this upcoming episode, we ask why humans have a protruding nose?  Practically no other creature does.  So was it millions of years of evolutionary engineering, or did we just need a convenient place to prop up our glasses?  Also - what’s the reason the US continues to measure temperature in Fahrenheit?  We’ll explain why we hold on to it like it’s a prized family heirloom.  Plus - why do cats love knocking things off tables?  Learn if it's instinct or some kind of weird feline experiment in gravity!  Join host Rick Peterson as he answers more of the questions you’ve Always Wondered about.
