Episode Synopsis


No animal has mastered the use of sound like Humankind has. We invented language. We invented music. We didn’t invent sonar, bats and dolphins taught that to us, but we did perfect it. Unfortunately, this innate gift of sound does not improve with volume. Humans come into this world screaming and wailing, so it’s no wonder we filled the world with an obnoxious abundance of noise. Instead of distributing the right of sound to musicians and linguists, we’ve given every soul on Earth the ability to drown out any birdsong or symphony with chaotic decibels of screeching horns. When every car is equipped to command the attention of everyone in a three block radius, is society safer, or just more more sleep deprived? Join Mat, Veronique, and Guest – Gaby Labotka – as we bray useless noise into the air to drown out… Honking!
