In a previous episode I spoke about the Drake equation and the odds of there being intelligent extraterrestrial life.

Many people have used the Drake equation to argue that it's almost impossible for there not to be intelligent life in our galaxy.

However, in the summer of 1950, physicist

Enrico Fermi pushed back against this by asking a very simple question. If there are so

many intelligent civilizations, where are they?

Learn more about the Fermi Paradox and some possible answers to the question on this episode

of Everything Everywhere Daily. This episode is sponsored by Scotty Vest.

If you've ever watched a science fiction movie,

you know the one thing that aliens never have?

Pocket!

Yeah, think about it.

You never see aliens with pockets.

In fact, you never really see pockets through much of human history either.

Otse the Ice Man, 5,300 years old, no pockets. Roman Togas, no pockets. In fact, you don't really

see pockets as we know them until the 18th century.

That means that pockets are one of the things that make us modern humans.

If you want to flaunt being a contemporary human with pockets, there's no better way to do it
