First, I think Bob Milne (subject of the podcast) is in a class by himself. He's able to virtually play back the audio of up to 4 symphonies with different keys and tempos in his head, simultaneously, and when queried at a random time, report where each of them is in the score +/- one second. He also has a very sophisticated "chunking" method for different major/minor/seventh/etc. keys, remembers pieces after hearing them once, and can visualize musicians in great detail while they're playing in his internal performance hall. This is superhuman by any definition. My personal best in this regard is to play harmonica and guitar at the same time on "Heart of Gold." Oh, and during Field Day one year, I discriminated two CW signals that were at virtually the same pitch and amplitude using only phase information. For the latter feat I was awarded an extra pizza ration by my temporarily stunned co-pilot.
