Our Friday the 13th podcast features a segment on Samasource, a San Francisco based non-profit that’s helping people in the developing world make a little luck for themselves by helping them get employment. Also, we hear about how Sir Winston Churchill’s speeches flunk a new computerized essay marking program. We’ll hitch a ride on a comet, and hear about one listener’s own project to create a low-cost ventilator.
