In today’s episode, we dive into the latest beauty trend taking the world by storm: eye color change surgery, specifically through a procedure called Keratopigmentation. Surgeons claim they can now permanently alter the pigment of your eyes, giving people the ability to choose the color they've always wanted. However, experts are sounding alarms about the potential dangers, such as sight-threatening complications and long-term health risks. We explore recent studies on this procedure, its rise in popularity, and why some doctors are skeptical. For more details, check out these studies on Keratopigmentation: Study 1, Study 2, and Study 3.

In this episode, we explore one of the most surreal and bizarre moments in the world of modern art. Back in 2019, a man made waves by purchasing an “art piece” —a banana taped to a wall—for a staggering $6.2 million. This controversial piece, created by artist Maurizio Cattelan, became a symbol of the absurdity and high stakes of contemporary art. But the story doesn’t end there. Just a few days ago, the same man appeared at the Peninsula Hong Kong, one of the most luxurious hotels in China, to hold a press conference that left spectators speechless. His act? Eating the banana.

Listen now to hear more about this strange art world moment.

In this week's episode, we dive into one of the quirkiest events in the world – the Nordic Hot Springs Hair Freezing Contest in Yukon, Canada. Each year, brave participants dip into hot springs in freezing temperatures, styling their hair into bizarre frozen masterpieces. The catch? The temperature needs to drop to at least -20°C (-4°F) for the magic to happen. However, this year's contest faced an unusual setback: the weather just wasn’t cold enough to freeze hair! Join us as we discuss what happens when nature doesn't cooperate, the history of this fun and frosty tradition, and how Yukon's winter wonderland is still a must-see destination, even without frozen hair art.

For more about the contest and to plan for next year, visit their official website here.
