BIG.You get the idea.We pulled out all the stops for this absolute marathon of an episode because we owed it to you all. You have made making each episode such a delight with your weird thoughts, running gags, and delightful dispositions. As just a couple of dudes riddled with ADHD and science nerdiness... what did we do to deserve you?! We're so grateful that y'all have showed up for this show week after week. Thank you.QUESTIONSJulian: "What if water ice sank?" from HunterTrace: “How much did Rapunzel's long hair weigh?” from Hal with Special Guest Kari Byron (Mythbusters, MythFits podcast)Sophie: “Likely way to die while walking my dog?” from LisaJulian “If a frog had a glass ass would it hop?” from CoyTrace: "How would the world be different if Zeppelins were the primary method of transportation?" from Hannah (yes, that Hannah) feat special guest Dr Alex Dainis (a.k.a. the “Blimp Lady”)Do you have an absurd question?

    Zooming in on Nano Paintings (They're a BIG deal)
    Sep 18 2025
    Want to make a nanoscale image of the Mona Lisa? Listener Kodiak does. All they have to do is learn a bit of quantum mechanics, some thermochemical nanolithography, and then tap the genius of ancient superbrain Leonardo da Vinci! EASY!! Scientists did it!! Even though you can't see it without a powerful microscope trust us that she is smirking even harder than usual.While Trace is poking around like Ant Man, Julian roleplays as Frozen's Elsa to see if he can extinguish fire with nothing but an icy blast. Spoiler alert: you may be better off with a magical mystical freeze ray.TRY YOUR HAND AT NANO ARTThanks to Prof. Babak Anasori for coming on the show and explaining nanoscale art to us.🔬 Visit Nanoartography.org to see past winners and submit your own creations!🥇 They even have pre-made nano images that YOU can add your own spin on before submitting it to a collaboration category! Go try! This year's deadline is Sept 30, 2025.QUESTIONSTrace: "Could you hypothetically ‘paint’ a Mona Lisa by utilizing microscopic structures rather than actual paint?" from KodiakJulian: "Can you extinguish a fire just by making it really cold?" from StevenDo you have an absurd question?
