1 | How Loud Should a Podcast Be?
3 minutes
This podcast may sound a bit louder (maybe a lot louder) than some other podcasts. The reason is that it's required for some podcast outlets. And for those of us who are hearing impaired, it works better because a low-volume podcast sometimes can't be turned up enough for us to hear it.

3 | The TAPP App and Your Homework Assignment
6 minutes
The TAPP (The A&P Professor) app has many features:
  • Car/bike mode that rotates your screen to display larger playback controls while driving
  • Streaming access to play episodes from anywhere
  • Always updated with the latest episodes—and an archived back catalog
  • Playback resume (when interrupted by a call, a student drops by, or other distraction)
  • Quick access to all the contact methods for the show like call, email, web, Facebook, and Twitter (but not carrier pigeon)
  • Playback controls like continuous play, Speed Control, Repeat On/Off, and Sleep Timer
  • BONUS content, such as sample handouts and other resources
It's a great way to share this podcast with colleagues. Just ask them to go to their device's app store, which everyone knows how to do—even if they don't know how to access a podcast. Plus, they get the great functionality of the app!
Your homework assignment: share this podcast with ONE other A&P colleague before the next episode arrives.

4 | The Silent Teacher—A Conversation with Aaron Fried

25 minutes
Aaron Fried, A&P faculty at Mohawk Valley Community College and national speaker on human body donation and anatomists in Nazi Germany, joins Kevin for a lively discussion of the value of "the silent teacher"—the human body donor—in teaching human structure. This chat touches on the value of respect and appreciation of human donors, proper implementation of human remains such as skeletons in A&P courses, and how that respect should extend to reproductions of human specimens.
This is the first of two conversations with Aaron Fried. The next episode (Episode 30) will delve more deeply into the anatomy illustrations produced by anatomists in Nazi Germany and the many ethical questions surrounding their continued use in anatomy labs around the world.

1 | Update: Number of Genes in Human Genome 4 minutes

A recent article in Science News kinda sounds like the known number of genes in the human genome has doubled since the report cited in a recent episode. Nope. It's just that experts are now often including both protein-coding genes and noncoding (RNA-coding) genes in the total.

 

2 | New Sensory Structure Found in the Gut 5 minutes

A new sensory structure has been documented in the lining of the mammalian gut. It involves the enteroendocrine cell, which has now been shown to synapse with neurons that lead to the brain via the vagus nerve, sort of like other epithelial-nervous sensory structures like the tactile disk (Merkel disk) arrangement in the skin.

3 | Interview with Barbara Waxer 30.5 minutes

Barbara Waxer, a professor of media and expert in copyright and the use of media joins Kevin for a chat about a topic that has come up before: how to properly use media created by others in our A&P course.
