Childhood Myths (Mostly) Debunked!
03/06/25 • 59 min
Were you told that swallowing gum means it stays in your stomach for seven years? Or that sitting too close to the TV would ruin your eyesight? In this hilarious episode of The School of Mock, Jon, Sruli, and Dave dive into the childhood myths we all believed—and the shocking (and often embarrassing) moments we realized they weren’t true. Whether it was something our parents told us or just something we somehow convinced ourselves was real, the guys break it all down with their signature mock draft style.
PLUS: Dave doesn't actually believe a watermelon can grow in your stomach... right...?
