AsapSCIENCE

Answers to the World's Weirdest Questions, Most Persistent Rumors, and Unexplained Phenomena

By: Mitchell Moffit, Greg Brown

Narrated by: Michael Moffit, Greg Brown

The instant New York Times bestselling book of entertaining, irreverent, and totally accessible illustrated answers to the scientific “questions you had no idea were bugging you all your life” (Fast Company), from the creators of the wildly popular YouTube channel AsapSCIENCE.

Why do we get hung over? What would happen if you stopped sleeping? Is binge-watching TV actually bad for you? Why should I take a power nap? In their first-ever book, Mitchell Moffit and Greg Brown, the geniuses behind the YouTube channel AsapSCIENCE, explain the true science of how things work in their trademark hilarious and fascinating fashion.

Applying the fun, illustrated format of their addictive videos to topics ranging from brain freeze to hiccups to the science of the snooze button, AsapSCIENCE takes the underpinnings of biology, chemistry, physics, and other hard sciences and applies them to everyday life through quirky and relatable examples that will appeal to both science nerds and those who didn’t exactly ace chemistry. This is the science that people actually want to learn, shared in a friendly, engaging style.

“Science is big fun. The ASAP guys get that, and they’ll show you—they’ll even draw you a diagram” (Bill Nye, “The Science Guy”). And amid the humor is great information and cocktail conversation fodder, all thoughtfully presented. Whether you’re a total newbie or the next Albert Einstein, this guide is sure to educate and entertain...ASAP.

So interesting and fun to listen to!

A fun way to bring questions you might have thought throughout the day in a simple explanation that makes you understand it way better. I've read this 3 times and still am interested in it and use the info in groups and gatherings!

Great listen and very informative.

The information, just like in there videos, was presented clearly and in a fun way. There is obviously overlap between their videos and the book, but I didn't mind hearing all of the interesting information again.

Great content, but a bit too fast paced

The topics and content was great just like on their YouTube channel. However, since it is written and performed in the same style, the narration ends up being a bit too fast for an audio book. Without the normal visual cues, it requires more concentration to really consume the content. It would have been much more enjoyable and relaxing if they slowed down and paced themselves better for the audio book.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Answers questions that we probably all have thought of at one time or another. Like if your food it;s the floor does the 5 second rule really apply.Silent but deadly ....do I have to explain. What's with bad breath. Gross little things like this peppered throughout the book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of AsapSCIENCE?

The 5 second rule will probably stand out the most. Knowledge is power so I will change the way I'e played this ruke.

i loved it but important things were left behind

I was really hoping to listen some research of the theory that says that the universe is infinite or some facts about the brain in masturbation
