  • TAPE Classic | Rump-Shaking Dyslexic Shrimp | feat. Dr Virginia Schutte
    May 1 2025

    Hi All! Trace and Julian are taking a bit of a break this week but fear not, we still have some content for you! This is one of our favorite old episodes where Julian learns the REAL alphabet, also known as the ABG’s (not a typo); Trace discovers we are all constantly online whether we like it or not by exploring the mysteries of WiFi; and special guest Dr Virginia Schutte dives into a super-powered animal propelled by twerking.

    QUESTIONS

    Virginia: “What if humans had mantis shrimp powers?” from listener Samara D

    Julian: "Who invented alphabetical order?" from listener Paul P

    Trace: "Where is the internet?" from guest Virginia Schutte, PhD

    Do you have an absurd question? Maybe it's silly idea you had, a shower thought about the nature of reality, or a ridiculous musing about your favorite food? If you want an answer, no matter the question, tell us!

    Submit questions directly to us thatsabsurdshow.com/ask or email them to hello at thatsabsurdshow.com. We'll give you a shout out in the episode if we use your question!

Also Julian is here and has an amazing story about melting gold with acid rain!QUESTIONSJulian: "Could we produce enough air pollution to make the sky rain aqua regia? At what point would it begin to dissolve gold?" from MateoTrace: "What is the smallest creature that can be knocked out with a punch?" from SeanDo you have an absurd question?
