In this episode, Andrew and Seth are joined by their awesome friend Sandra! The three try to keep their minds intact as they talk about Europe's long history of prosecuting animals in real human courts of law. Like with a jury. And defense attorneys. For real. 

And we answer an email that challenges our identities and sense of self worth. So it's fun from start to finish!

In this one we take an unflinching gaze at the 50 second movie about a train coming at you. (I mean, I may have flinched a little. But come on. That train was coming right at me!) We also stick it to those fat cats in Hollywood by doing some fact checking on famous movie myths. And we answer more emails!

So often we all live our lives happily without ever thinking about the everyday objects that we wouldn't have if it weren't for the ancient Greeks and Romans. Well Seth and Andrew are here to put an end to that happiness. In this episode, Seth tells Andrew about two things we all hold very dear that the Greeks and Romans (pretty much) invented. And we read possibly our most important email to date.
