And with current standards in 2014, "PEW PEW PEW" sound effects have been added to the unit,

Upvote for the sound effects!

This show may not be for you, but I'm concerned that you're too quick to toss it aside based on a misconception...

If you listen again, Radio Lab's style is a throw-back to the 'radio dramas' of old, with sound effects and mood music and fast scripts and narrators leading you through the story. I actually thought it was corny how they played up the 'old-timey radio style' when presenting these non-fiction subjects. Its a scripted show, not a live interview show, so the fast cuts are more analogous to a reporter sharing a set of punchy quotes gathered from experts for a story.

SOME PLEASE LOOP THE SOUND EFFECT AT 1:22!

I like that they used the original Quake pipe bomb sound effect.

The sound effects make this whole thing - so brilliant.

4 more comments have been lost in the ether at this killed duplicate.

I can handle Magnum PI doing the narration, but the sound effects are just silly.

OH! Someone dj'ing different sound effects every time kitty makes the run past the hall entry-The goal: Cause someone to PTPL.

Mario 64 was also the first game that used Dolby Pro-Logic surround sound effectively. I would always spin the camera around and around to hear the waterfall through different speakers.

EDIT: Apparently even some SNES games had surround: http://www.mobygames.com/attribute/sheet/attributeId,136/p,15/

My Windows make sound effects for various parts. It's mostly Star Trek's sound effects.

Do they really still need to add that sound effect for moving a window? I think it's safe to assume that everyone knows that BS these days

As an Atlantic Canadian, I can say I actually winced when he threw that lobster into what-could-have-been unsalted water.

For good lobster you need kosher salt.

For best lobster, you cook it in sea water. Over an open driftwood fire. On a cobblestone beach. With clams steaming open on hot rocks next to the fire.

*cue Homer hungry sound effect.

Yet more awesome nature footage ruined by idiotic fake sound effects.
