In January, I blogged about the Sun rising two days early in Greenland. Over on my blog, a spirited discussion ensued that led to an explanation of this strange phenomena.
I decided it would make a good 365 Days of Astronomy podcast and it aired today. You can check it out here (free of course!)
No spoilers, but it is pretty cool and important info was provided by a physics teacher in Greenland!

very fascinating, pretty cool stuff, any day the sun rises earlier than expected is a good day :)
I don't know why, but for some reason that doesn't sound like you to me. I've listened to other of your podcasts and even met you. I guess old farts don't remember voices well...
Hale, at the point in time of the year's first sunrise in Greenland, how long does the sun stay up? Does it just rise and then set again at first?
