After Pearl Harbor was attacked, one American seaplane had to circle the world to get home

When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, the crew of an American seaplane were caught off guard near New Zealand. Unable to return across the Pacific, they were forced to fly home "the long way" -- all the way around the world. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll follow the adventures of the Pacific Clipper on its 30,000-mile journey through a world engulfed in war.

We'll also delve into the drug industry and puzzle over a curious case of skin lesions.
