Yes, my mistake.  It was yesterday night, and this Sunday.

Is MythBusters on Thursday also?  In Cal it aired yesterday, on Wednesday.....

I don't want to spoil it for anyone who might be watching the program today or Sunday, but the crack team of busters did not succeed in recording _intelligible_  sound onto clay.

Tonight's MythBusters TV show takes on the concept of "archaeoacousitcs".  Can sound be inadvertently recorded on objects such as clay on a pottery wheel?  Can such a recording later be reproduced?  The episode airs tonight (Thurs) at 9pm EST on the Discovery Channel, and then again on Sunday, 10/15, at 8pm EST. 

I talked with them a couple months ago, and pointed them towards Christor Hamp's website:
