I live in the uk and there is an amazing series running on BBC called ocean giants. It explores the lives of dolphins and wales and just...WOW.
The intelligence of these creatures amazes me.
Point number 1 - if you can, watch this show. It's on BBC IPlayer.
Point number 2 - from my perspective, a discussion about the brains of these intelligent creatures would fascinate me. Yeah, that's it - I'm suggesting there should be a brain science podcast episode.
Sorry if I sound a bit crazy, this tv series has just blown my mind.
p.s another fascinating insight is that dolphins and wales have some brain features that humans have - even though there is no link in the evolutionary lines.

One name mentioned on the show is Diana Reiss who is working on communicating with dolphins http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_Reiss.
She seems like a great candidate.
