Hey SoCal! This week ‘Ozark’ returned to Netflix. But if you’ve been busy binging Laura Linney laundering swamp trash dollars, you may have spaced on your social life. Don’t sweat it, cuz Mike Ciriaco is dishing on where to drop your dollars with this week’s Hey SoCalendar.

Nerd out at National Geographic Live with “How to Clone a Mammoth.”

Shapiro travels through the Arctic regions of Siberia and North America to collect the bones, teeth, and other remains of Ice Age giants like mammoths, saber-toothed cats, and giant camels. She extracts DNA from these remains and uses this information to understand how changing climates and increasing human activity have shaped the present-day distribution of species.
