Mildly Interesting

In dieser Folge erklärt Caro die Grundlagen von Anti-Materie und was das mit Bananen zutun hat, während Sam von den untötbaren Mikroorganismen namens Tardigrades erzählt. Wenn ihr Themenwünsche habt, schreibt Caro bei instagram/twitter (@rudebutginger).

Wir stellen uns vor.

In dieser recht verpeilten ersten Aufnahme reden Sam und Caro über den kontroversen "Planeten" Pluto und eine wissenschaftliche Prügelei, die dem Astronom Tycho Brahe seine halbe Nase kostete.  

In der nächsten Episode geht es dann natürlich wieder etwas weniger chaotischer zu ;)
