He discusses various topics related to the Observatory, his own work there, and the music he makes. One topic is a robotic telescope at the Observatory which can be controlled via the Internet. The podcast closes with a recording of Alvey performing his song "It's All in the Way that We Lean," about how the tilt of the earth's axis brings about the seasons.
