(0:43) New research increases the number of coding genes in the human genome up from around 19,000 or so genes to just over 21,000 genes.
(4:12) Brain Facts book: great summary of basic concepts of neuroscience (with great pictures).
(6:50) I ask your help to spread the news and share this podcast with others who might be interested. Or complete strangers. Okay, maybe just folks you know who are actual A&P teachers or have related interests.

(20:57) Even if you've already heard them all, it's worth your while to listen again, starting at Episode 1 and working your way through. If you know you've missed some previous episodes, that's an even better reason to binge!
