LR034 - Fear Of A Turd Planet w/ Tamir Rawlings

Lost Rhetoric

The mysterious interstellar object known as "Oumuamua" was discovered in October of 2017 & has been baffling scientists ever since. Harvard's top astronomer, Avi Loeb, believes it could actually be an Alien Probe & he even wrote a book about his theory. Tamir Rawlings joins me to discuss his ideas about where this object possibly came from, what it is made of (spoiler: it's poop!) & what it could be doing in our neighborhood.
