I read from diaper to diaphysis. The diaper pattern isn't as interesting as I hoped it would be. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diapering There were two examples (actually 3) for diaphone. The first is from a video of Harry Barry (I have to assume that's his real name) describing how a Type F Diaphone fog horn works. I never knew I wanted to see this. I urge you to watch this video. He seems like a fun guy. https://youtu.be/TO3vp0Sh-wE The second example (of 2 diaphones) is from here. It's a little diaphone "call and response". https://youtu.be/VgFxEdsf7m4 Here's some info on diaphorase and diaphoresis: https://agscientific.com/blog/all-about-diaphorase-enzymes.html https://www.osmosis.org/answers/diaphoresis If you're REALLY interested in learning about invertebrate diaphragms (and more), check out these links: https://lanwebs.lander.edu/faculty/rsfox/invertebrates/ceratomia.html https://www.nature.com/articles/1961010b0 The word of the episode is "diaphragm".

I read from dial tone to diammonium phosphate with Michael Callahan from the podcast "Where We Go Next". wherewegopod@gmail.com Apple Podcasts Spotify Website Instagram Not all of these sounds came directly from the Museum of Endangered Sounds, but they're basically the same thing. The reason why is a slightly long story and not worth telling why. I just wanted to give credit where credit it due. http://savethesounds.info/ "Dial up" sound from here: https://freesound.org/people/wtermini/sounds/546450/ "Woman's Voice from TIME or POPCORN" sound from here: http://savethesounds.info/ "Movie Projector and Beeps" sound from here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuBAnjeuiac "Nintendo (NES) Cartridge" sound from here: http://savethesounds.info/ "Dot Matrix Printer" sound from here: https://freesound.org/people/viertelnachvier/sounds/181420/ This is the oldest info I could find about the original dialyzers but I didn't put a ton of effort into it and everything I could find was about kidney dialysis, not the generic form of dialysis. Oh well. https://homedialysis.org/home-dialysis-basics/machines-and-supplies/dialysis-museum "Diammonium phosphate" anyone? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diammonium_phosphate The word of the episode is "dial tone".
