Now, as I mentioned at the very top of this episode, after Kena and I recorded this conversation, we got some late-breaking news.

No plea has been entered. The next story capturing headlines this week, at an isolated research base in Antarctica, a man is accused of attacking and threatening his colleagues.

The alleged perpetrator has been put under psychological evaluation and has cooperated with South Africa's Ministry of Environment, which oversees the base there.
