  • Mattspalining - Scanning Electron Microscopes

    Matt Storrs sits down with scientist turned stand-up comic Ben Miller (IG @thisisbenmiller) to discuss scanning electron microscopes.

  • Mattsplaining - Rodeo

    Matt Storrs sits down and explains rodeos to James Mac a comedian and former bull rider/team roper. Did you know the origins of this wonderful sport? Matt seems to think it has a basis in dressage. James sets him straight, but we're left with lingering questions about the source of clothing on Rodeo Drive. There's danger, there's competition, and there are more than a few inaccuracies.

  • Mattsplaining - Podcasts
    Matt speaks with reluctant podcasting expert Tristan Miller (@tristanjmiller) and they do a podcast about podcasts. We discuss the link between NPR pledge drives and new podcasts as well as male discomfort with friendship. It's far too inside baseball for a second episode, and it's an absolute delight to listen to Tristan try and listen to Matt get podcasting 85% right. Just wait till you see your favorite podcast merch as prolific as football jerseys. 
    Surely we got something wrong and I can't wait for you to tell me what it was.  See Tristan at The Lincoln Lodge in Chicago on November 10!!

  • Mattsplaining - Satanism

    Matt speaks with a Satanist and gets a shocking amount right. Satanic panic and Highlight Magazine linked? Possibly. Seitan, a covert Satanist food item? It could be. Is "Covert Food Item" a decent band name? We think so. Dresden Visage, who does not represent the Satanic Temple in any way, sets Matt straight and we learn that Satanists can be Protestant too.
