In this episode Trace takes way, way too long to explain that dreams are pretty darn short. Meanwhile, friend of the absurd, Deboki Chakravarti squeezes every last drop of information about breastfeeding.

QUESTIONS

Deboki Chakravarti: "Why do we only breastfeed our babies, but not other close relatives and friends to boost each other's immune systems?" from Kathy

Trace: "How does time in dreams work" from Haurane

Do you have an absurd question? Maybe it's silly idea you had, a shower thought about the nature of reality, or a ridiculous musing about your favorite food? If you want an answer, no matter the question, tell us!

It's the most wonderful time of the year! When the fish in the water make the kids scream and holler and panic with fear! That's right, it's Shark Time. You all know what we're referring to but we think the term might be trademarked like the Tuber Bowl and Taco Thursday. Anyway, we're kicking off the celebrations and to help us do so we went out and (politely) caught the coolest shark expert we know, Jaida Elcock, to answer your shark-related musings!

QUESTIONS

Julian: "What adaptation, that is completely absent from all sharks, would be best to add to sharks and why?" from Jaida

Jaida: "How fast would the ecosystem collapse - or the creature itself die - if a megladon got plopped into the ocean?" from Hannah (YES, THAT HANNAH)

Trace: "What does it smell like underwater?" from Tom

Do you have an absurd question? Maybe it's a silly idea that popped into your head, a shower thought about the nature of reality, or a ridiculous musing about your favorite food? Whatever your question, we want to answer it—tell us!

In this strange episode Trace obsesses over the wild water system stretching across North America, and Julian contemplates indoor clouds and ACTUALLY ANSWERS: Does this solve anything?!?!

Thanks to Dr Brian Rahm from the New York State Water Resources Institute at Cornell University for answering my silly questions.

Find out more about water: https://cals.cornell.edu/water-resources-institute

QUESTIONS

Julian: "Is it possible to create a cloud indoors?" from Josh in Bozeman, Montana

Trace: "What would happen if everyone in North America turned on all their taps and hoses and just let the water run indefinitely?" from Patreon poll winner: Tammy

This week we try something a little different — the ⚡️THUNDER ROUND ⚡️ as Jeff Goldblum says in Jurassic Park Uno, “Your [science nerds] were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should!”

In this special episode, Julian and Trace snagged every dinosaur related question we could fit in a shaving cream can. Then, like a couple of velociraptors in a kitchen we made a huge mess of things. There’s a new Jurassic World movie, so we figured if not now — then when? Maybe people are going to go DINO-CRAZY! (we hope). If you have a Jurassic-leaning friend send them this episode; we spared no expense on it!

QUESTIONS

Julian:

1. “How is it possible for the largest male dinosaurs to mount the females?” from Stephen
2. “What if the dinosaurs were able to evolve further- would they have eventually gotten to "human" level brains/consciousness?” from Tori
3. “What if dinosaurs weren’t wiped out what would things be like?” from Sam
4. “What if pterosaurs had survived the mass extinction that wiped out the non-avian dinosaurs?” from Adele
5. “What would have happened if the meteor that caused dinosuars to go extinct never hit the earth?” from Steven
6. “What would happen if a meteor hit a flat earth?” from Tyler

Trace:

1. "If there had been an intelligent dinosaur species which evolved some civilization, would we able to detect it?" from Udo (?)
2. “What does a dinosaur taste like?” from Pat
3. ”How likely would it be for something like Jurassic park to exist in the near future?” from Maya

Do you have an absurd question? Maybe it's silly idea you had, a shower thought about the nature of reality, or a ridiculous musing about your favorite food? If you want an answer, no matter the question, tell us!

Setting: Dry, warm evening in a small pub in Los Angeles.

Deputy Julian: "Whew-whee! What's that smell?!"

Detective Kyle (with a light drawl): "That's ozone, Julian. Something out of this world happened in this English phone box."

Dep. Julian (looking up at the sky): "By out of this world…you mean up there in the sky?"

Det. Kyle: sighs heavily

Dep. Julian: "I'm going to go check!"

Julian unfurls his giant grotesque wings. After a few large flaps, he has risen into the air. He begins sweating profusely.

Dep. Julian: "GAH, I should've taken off this heavy sweatshirt!"

Det. Kyle: Pulls out his bubble pipe "Bye, LaForge. I think you've got it!"

QUESTIONS

Julian: "Could humans ever actually evolve to have the ability to fly? How hard would it be?" from Madeline

Trace: "How many sweatshirt you have to remove to inhale a lethal dose of ozone created by static discharge?" from Phillippe

Trace WOOD really like you to know that Dr Sam Zelinka from the Forest Products Lab is really SWELL, and he is KNOT KIDDING (I’m out of puns). Also, Julian talks about airplanes (again).

QUESTIONS

Julian: "What is the fastest color?" from Rey

Trace: "How much does my house shrink in the winter and expand in the summer?" from Chris

When I was a kid, I ran around a corner and a tree branch went right into my eye. Luckily, my mom kissed it and made it all better… or… was it my brain that made it better? And can dogs do that too? Brb, gonna go kiss my dog.

QUESTIONS

Julian: "Do animals get the placebo effect??" from Trevor (poll winner)

Trace: "How long have people been kissing kids boo-boos, and does it work?" from Jenn (she/her)

Bananas are positively aching to murder you. They’re radioactive, they’re clones, they’re slippery, they’re filled with potassium (which explodes when it hits water). Ignore those mosquitoes over there in the corner, pay attention to this murderous banana! NO DON’T PULL THE CURTAIN

QUESTIONS

Julian: "How many bananas would it take to kill a man?" from Hannah (she/her)

Trace: "Could Mosquitoes go extinct with nothing bad happening to the ecosystem in the aftermath?" from Hannah (she/her)

Turns out plants are absolute CHATTERBOXES! They talk so much that they make Julian look like a silent partner (he’s not). Instead, he uses a silly German accent to accost our guest Maren Hunsberger all about plant communication. And, speaking of intense interrogations, Star Wars’ Tatooine gets a lot of play in the pop-science space news, but here at home having two suns is way hotter, and also (surprisingly) WAY COLDER!

QUESTIONS

Julian: "What would happen if our Solar System had two suns" from Hannah

Maren: "If plants ‘scream’ when cut, do they talk for other reasons?" from Xander
