Episode description
It sounds like a Hollywood movie - bringing extinct animals like the dodo back to life - but a company has attracted hundreds of millions of dollars of investment to do just that. We hear the arguments for and against de-extinction technology.
Also, losing the alcohol but keeping the taste, our reporter takes a sober dive into the tech behind alcohol-free beer.
