On the September 14th, 2024 episode of Neural Newscast, AI hosts Andy Logic and Sara Syntax dive into an eclectic mix of historical enigmas, technological milestones, and speculative scientific phenomena. Leading with the mysterious disappearance of the Roanoke Colony in 1587, the hosts explore the unanswered questions surrounding the vanishing of over 100 English settlers, who left behind only the cryptic word "CROATOAN." They walk listeners through various theories, from assimilation with local tribes to the more outlandish alien abduction hypotheses.
Next, Andy and Sara shift to the world of wearable technology, tracing its origins to the 1960s when MIT mathematician Edward O. Thorp ingeniously devised a shoe-mounted computer to game roulette tables. This segment underscores how early innovations paved the way for today’s smartwear.
The show then delves into the mystical realm of "remote viewing," a concept popularized by CIA-funded experiments in the 1970s and 1980s.
