Science with The Blunt Letters

S6 Ep1: Capsaicin v. The Blunt Letters


Listen Later

On this fiery installment of the Science with The Blunt Letters, Micaela, Elle, and Jerbil take on the infamous Hot Sauce Challenge—ten sauces, zero shame, and absolutely no regard for their future digestive peace. As the heat levels rise, the trio tests every so-called remedy they can get their hands on (milk, bread, ice cream, prayer, etc.) while breaking down the science of capsaicin: why it burns, how your body reacts, and the surprising ways it’s actually used in medicine and everyday life.

Expect laughs, sweat, questionable decisions, and a few fun facts that’ll make you sound smart while crying over your next plate of wings.


Featuring the original song "Science Shuffle" by Micaela Superstar
