[Podcast Episode 53] Did you know the medical sciences date back to the Sixth Day of Creation? We think back to God performing the first surgery and first anesthesia, then listen to a powerful analogy about how Natural Selection is thought of today and learn about alligators. Plus, we get to hear our first bit of audio feedback!
