You’ve probably heard that singing to your plants helps them grow - but is that actually true? In this episode, we dig into the science behind the myth, from CIA lie detector experiments on houseplants to a MythBusters greenhouse filled with heavy metal. The answer turns out to be more complicated - and more fascinating - than you'd expect. What does sound really do to plants, and what does not happen, despite decades of wishful thinking? We’ll separate the pseudoscience from the peer-reviewed facts. Then we chat with Cliff and Harrison from the Try This At Home MythBusters Rewatch Podcast!

Cliff Bumgardner and Harrison Stewart revisit the iconic Mythbusters series, exploring every wild myth, moment, experiment, and explosion. Join us for a laugh-out-loud rewatch that leaves no question unanswered, featuring special appearances from behind-the-scenes crew and the Mythbusters themselves.

For over 20 years, the fate of every baseball game on the calendar wasn't in the hands of some software or spreadsheets in MLB offices. It was in the hands of a married couple working from their living room in Martha's Vineyard. In an age before AI and software optimization, Henry and Holly Stephenson built each MLB season by hand—one pencil mark at a time. This episode tells the story of the duo who quietly ran the show behind the scenes. In this episode, we tell their story and then play the quiz game with Magician, Paige Thompson!

What do Rondo, Hayti, Storyville, and Humboldt Park have in common? They were thriving minority communities - until the U.S. built highways through them. In this episode, we look at how a 1950s infrastructure project tore through Black and immigrant neighborhoods, and what’s being done to make things right. Then we chat with Comedian Natasha Samreny.

Samreny is a third culture comedian who identifies with anyone who treats garlic as a food group. Natasha's performed at The Laugh Factory, Mortified Chicago, and these festivals: Boston Comedy Arts, Latina Comedy, Detroit Women of Comedy, and Edinburgh's Fringe.
