Paul Carr and Adam Smith are joined by NASA Postdoctoral Fellow Eva Bodman, who was recommended to us by Tabetha Boyajian. We discussed the developments on KIC 8462852 (aka Boyajian's Star) over the last year. A lot has happened, and we covered as much as we could. We also took a couple of live questions from the YouTube chat, which is much appreciated.
