Juliet HarrisHOST
But we're going back to when we talk about fantasy football.
Juliet HarrisHOST
I am totally, if I've got a fantasy football budget and I'm making a fantasy rock team, i'm totally spending 11 million quid on skin up front as my striker because she is one of the ultimate front people isn't she just just she just always knew what to do and even when she wasn't doing anything you couldn't take your eyes off her and shirley manson are absolutely smashing it at this period in time they are just terrific so yeah huge fan of skin um and yeah they are just a proper rock band at this point and what's so good about them is they don't look they're not a bunch of white guys they're really sort of diverse and they're really interesting and they don't look like a classic rock band I can't remember if we've discussed this or not before but one of the later albums the album after this one Q did a really big splashy cover piece on them interviewing them and I did feel slightly for skin because she was kind of very quietly coming out at a time when people didn't and she was talking about a band they'd toured with and she sort of pulled a love-lorn face the journalist said about this female singer from this band and one of the other blokes literally kind of wades in and goes oh she had B.O. it was awful she was like a builder in the Gobi Desert oh I really feel for skin.
Juliet HarrisHOST
Sometimes having to talk with boys must have been just grim, really.
Juliet HarrisHOST
So my love to skin as a fellow gay woman is not always an easy world to live in, Ed.
Mark PollockGUEST
They were really, they were just sports events in dramatic, with dramatic backdrops.
Mark PollockGUEST
The Gobi Desert, the North Pole, the South Pole, the Dead Sea Ultra, the Everest.
Mark PollockGUEST
marathon.
Mark PollockGUEST
They were, they were racist.
Jim VieiraGUEST
They built the Great Pyramid of Egypt.
Jim VieiraGUEST
And they went to the Gobi Desert and created a massive city there and built earthen pyramids, just like in the U.S. And those pyramids that you see in Japan are just like the ones in the United States.
Jim VieiraGUEST
And I have an account from Manly Palmer Hall.
Jim VieiraGUEST
He was a 33-degree mason, and he has this quote about Stonehenge and the mounds of ancient America, the Great Pyramid of Egypt, the pyramids of South and Central America, all being built by remnants from peoples that were dispersed after the fall of Atlantis like 12,000 years ago.
Li BaiSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
From the serenity of Heavenly Lake to the busy night market of Urumqi, here one discovers that Xinjiang Province is home to many ethnic peoples with their own unique customs and their own unique cuisines.
Li BaiSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Out here in the Gobi Desert, one still finds travelers on the ancient Silk Road.
Li BaiSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The same road that over 700 years ago brought Marco Polo to these very gates.
Li BaiSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The gates of Jiayuguan, the extreme western end of the Great War.
James GillilandHOST
So the Atlanteans sent their beam ships and just melted down Lemuria.
James GillilandHOST
And again, there's just huge glass sheets under the Gobi Desert.
James GillilandHOST
That's the remnants of some of Lemuria.
James GillilandHOST
It was other places as well.

Andrew DonovanGUEST
Every choice matters, said Dr Catherine Hayhoe.
Andrew DonovanGUEST
China's Great Wall is a huge ecological engineering project to slow the expansion of the Gobi and Taklamakan deserts in the country's north.
Andrew DonovanGUEST
It is designed to slow soil erosion and sand deposition that has been increasing since the 1950s, which has exacerbated the region's already dry conditions, which in turn created the conditions for more sandstorms.
Andrew DonovanGUEST
Sandstorms blow away the top layer of soil and deposit sand, degrading the land and increasing particulate matter pollution in cities.
MitchGUEST
It's up to them whether or not to recognize it as just a piece or recognize it as this is their whole world.
MitchGUEST
You know, everybody's perspective is from their own eyes, and our own perception is only measured at 0.0035% of the total measurable spectrum, which means that we see a grain of sand compared to the Gobi Desert.
MitchGUEST
We see a fraction of what is actually real and so bringing that point up that's where a lot of people they stop their argument and just start slinging mud at me from then on whenever I'm bringing this up because they don't like they don't like thinking that they don't know what they're actually seeing because they don't choose to look deeper into the subject and that's the whole point of what i'm doing is i'm trying to look deeper and come up with answers but all i'm coming up with is more questions more so on our own understanding than what I have actually seen and understand to be real and yet to actually realize how they're capable of doing these certain things like stepping in and out of our reality, basically.
ShawnHOST
Right.
Neil deGrasse TysonGUEST
And there are four such latitudes, but the two ones we all think about is plus 30 and minus 30.
Neil deGrasse TysonGUEST
So at the plus 30 around the Earth, you get the Sahara Desert, the Gobi Desert, the Mojave Desert, and I probably left one out.
Neil deGrasse TysonGUEST
India would be a desert with 30 degrees goes right through that, were it not for the monsoon.
Neil deGrasse TysonGUEST
That sort of changes the total waterfall, annual waterfall there.
Kulbhushan Singh SuryawanshiGUEST
adapted for cold, but they're also adapted for the hot.
Kulbhushan Singh SuryawanshiGUEST
Now, snow leopards are also found in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia, and the Gobi Desert can get up to plus 40 degrees Celsius in the summer.
Kulbhushan Singh SuryawanshiGUEST
Climate change is going to impact them more through changing their habitat and their surrounding than directly affecting them.
Kulbhushan Singh SuryawanshiGUEST
Because at the end of the day, they're mammals and mammals are adapted to live in variable temperature regimes.
Meghna ChakrabartiHOST
You are literally blowing my mind today in the most wonderful way.
Meghna ChakrabartiHOST
Let me go back to what you said.
Kulbhushan Singh SuryawanshiGUEST
There are snow leopards in the Gobi? Yes, yes, yes.
Kulbhushan Singh SuryawanshiGUEST
Gobi Desert is one of the best places for snow leopards, but only the mountain ranges in the Gobi.
