Introducing the lightly competitive knowledge showcase from the geniuses behind the YouTube series SciShow. Every Tuesday, join Hank Green, Ceri Riley, Stefan Chin, and Sam Schultz as they try to one-up and amaze each other with weird and funny scientific research... while not getting distracted. There will be tangents about video games, music, weird smells, surprisingly deep insights about life, and of course, poop, but it always comes back to the science.
Hank: From WNYC Studios and the team behind the YouTube series SciShow, it's SciShow Tangents!
[intro music[
Hank: The new podcast where four friends-
All: Hi!
Sam: Oh Gosh Sorry
Hank: try to outsmark and outwit each other but usually just get excited about the awesome science we're learning about. I'm Hank Green and I'm made of molecules
Ceri: Im Ceri Riley and I'm definitely not a robot
Srefan: I'm Stefan Chin and I never skip leg day
Sam: And I'm Sam Schultz the Chris Kirkpatrick of science podcasting
Ceri: The who?
Sam: Chris Kirkpatrick from *NSYNC , he was the bad boy
[music]
Ceri: every tuesday we tackle a new topic from amphibians to sattleites
Hank: and we compete for who has found the coolest, weirdest, funniest sciencentific research on that topic
SAm: Like how all the poop astronauts left on the moon is legally the property of the U.S. government
[Butt fact farting noise]
Stefan: But we start each podcast with a traditional science poem. Go for it Hank!
Hank: This is a poem about my general experience playing kerbal space program
the engines on her rocket were lit
i instructed her booster to floor it
but then my mom called
and i didnt press pause
she ran out of fuel in her orbit
orbital mechanics
give me the panics
whenever i play KSP
my rescue sped faster
but then flew right past her
a sattelite she alway will be
Sam and Stefan: [sad goan]
Ceri: Thats so sad
Stefan: Alright but what if all those rockets colllided and became a bunch of space garbage? do those count as sattletites?
Sam: or like if a spacefcraft dumps out all its pee and it freeezes into tiny ice crystals?
Stefan: wha-?
Hank: I mean, the pee would probably vaporize like right after that instead of snowballing into a big gross comet thing, so theres no way that would be a sattelite. Roght?
Ceri: Yeah, i dont think that would be a sattelite but we can see astronaut waste when its dumped out, it kinda look like a shooting star
Sam and Stefan: blegh
Hank: beautiful
Ceri: Anyway We also make each other find the true fact in a web of lies
Sam: Okay which one of these facts about the russian space stations MIr is true
1) Mir was riddled with giant free floating hairballs that jammed vital systems
Hank: WHAT, wait, okay
Ceri: Gross
Hank: You keep going
Sam: Number 2 Mir launched and tested a giant mirror that reflected the suns light to combat the long russian winters
number 3: mir smelled like caramel popcorn and no one could figure out why
Hank: I mean considering what i imagine space to smell like, that sounds great
Ceri: im also dubious aobut hairballs, maybe if someone like lost a hair clump you could collect it and it wouldnt be an immidte crisis
hank: right
Ceri: the popcorn smell sounds interesting
Sam: Ha Ha It was Number 2 the space mirror
Hank: awww
Ceri: No!
[music[
Hank: Plus we take the massive amount of scientific knowledge in the room and use it to answer some listener questions
Ceri: I can tell you how gene editing really works, down to the specific enzymes
Sam; I can tall you why Osctric phallses are a lot like hot wheels tracks
Stefan: and i know just enough about a lot of things to get me into trouble
Hank: all excellent opportunites for tangents
Sam: but hey this podcast isnt all aobut science
Ceri: Everything is science!
Hank: And if you wanna learn aobut everything with us listen to our lightly competifive new podcast its scishow tangents, premering november 13th! subcrube wherever yuo get your podcasts.
