Michael Bay, if you’re listening, we made this episode for you. To the rest of our listeners, we agree movie explosions can be great, but in this episode, we’re discussing the real-life science behind why some chemicals go boom and the dangers associated with them when they do. We go into detail about two terrifying, recent explosions, one in a Texas Tech laboratory and the other at the port of Beirut.

Why would the Air Force ever think it was good idea to reassure the public about UFOs by naming one of their investigations "Project Grudge?" Why is the Western U.S. the best place to spot UFOs?

Dead & Buried: The History of Burial Practices with Amy Manlapas 1:11:43

Let's talk about death, baby! Burying and memorializing the dead is typically thought of as a distinctly human (or at least hominid) act. In this episode, Meagan is joined by Substitute Sister and history teacher, Amy Manlapas, to talk about what that has looked like for the last few hundred thousand years (we've been digging graves for a long time!). Starting with the 400,000 year old (and pre-burial-practices) Sima de los Huesos (Pit of Bones) in Spain, we dig through the history of graves leading up to the modern cemetery. ** You can find Amy on TikTok @amymanlapas or through her website: https://amy-elizabeth.net/ . ** Want to listen without the ads?
