What's Blood?

04/05/21 • 29 min

In this episode, we talk about everyone’s favorite red liquid: blood! (Sorry, fruit punch fans...). We cover all the basics, like how do bones make our blood? How did blood evolve? And how long can Matt talk about the human body before he pukes? And of course, Matt and Brandon do all of this while having a considerable amount of THC floating around in their own blood.

Previous Episode

What's Physics?

What is...physics? In this episode, we talk about what the field of physics is at its core and learn that it’s basically just fortune telling with a whole lot more math. Be sure to listen to this episode if you want to hear Matt ask whether you can pick up subatomic particles with tweezers and Brandon take several breathing breaks. Don’t worry—his lungs are fine, he’s just very, very high.

Next Episode

Where did Humans come from?

In this episode, the boys tackle human evolution. Why did we stop being monkeys? Were cavemen humans or something else? And are we still evolving today? Stream away to hear Brandon explain it all (despite being quite a bit higher than usual). Plus, they manage to squeeze both Jack Nicholson and Bill Nye impressions in there, so that’s something.
