This week, we chat about some of our favorite stories—jumping spiders that can hear without ears, long-lasting changes in the human body at high altitudes, and the long hunt for an extinct bison—with Science’s Online News Intern Jessica Boddy.

Plus, Sarah Crespi talks to Deputy News Editor David Malakoff about six science lessons for the next U.S. president.
