  • Why do skunks stink?
    Jan 6 2026

    Skunks can stink, no doubt about it. But that stink is actually a superpower! Join Molly and co-host Diya as they find out how these critters use their smell to scare away enemies, what the smell is made of, and how to make your own de-skunking potion. Plus, Wombat Pete drops by to promote his new music festival, we speak to some skunk experts, and we try our best to guess a new Mystery Sound.

    Don't forget the de-skunking potion mnemonic:

    4 Cats Had Problems

    Queen Coughed Beside Suzie's Tenth Lasagna, Don't Sneeze

    Translation:

    4 Cups hydrogen peroxide

    Quarter Cup baking soda

    Teaspoon Liquid Dish Soap

    Guest: Marie Tosa, Research Scientist with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.

    Guest: Ted Stankowich, Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences and CSU Long Beach.

  • Brains On presents - Rocket women: How a secret program paved the way for female astronauts
    Dec 30 2025

     We're on a little winter break and we're gonna be back with a new Brains On episode next week. This week we have an episode of our Sister show forever ago to share with you. If you're interested in origin stories or history, this is the show for you. You can subscribe wherever you listen to Brains On.

    Get ready for an out-of-this-world episode! Joy and co-host Elsa are trapped in a black hole with a baby elephant and a mountain of old junk!

    They’ll explore the history of a super secret astronaut testing program for women called the “Fellow Lady Astronaut Trainees.” This group of bold, highly-trained pilots spent years making a case for why women are just as qualified to become astronauts as men!

I think it would be cool if you guys made another Mosties episode. If you do, I would like to suggest a most adorable animal catagory. Thanks!

I love Brains On so much! It’s very engaging, which makes it really enjoyable to listen to. The questions that are answered in each episode are reworded/simplified very well, along with the amazing stories, which I find helps to define the answers quite a bit better for me than if the answers were just told straight up and flat. This podcast is truly amazing in regards to performance as well. The speakers have great diction and speak clearly, which really helps to make the podcast so fun to listen to. Brains On is truly the best, and I hope you give it a try! *Even if science is not your thing ;)*

Amazing podcast!!!

I really like this podcast. It teaches on so many great topics in a kid friendly way. Just one thing. I would like to know if a season is ending because on Tuesdays I check the feed and don`t understand if there isn`t a new episode. Otherwise, this is a great podcast!

LOVE THIS!!!
