You know that feeling where you get a snippet of a song stuck in your head and it loops over and over? Those hard to shake songs are also known as earworms, and in this episode Molly has a particularly sticky one in her brain.
We'll find out why some songs are catchier than others and, most importantly, scientifically-proven ways to get rid of them.
Plus, we'll hear a mystery sound and a Moment of Um that answers the question: "Do spiders have bones?"
