  • Hello there.

  • If you love our show or if you're a parent of someone

  • who does, I want to tell you about another podcast they think you'll love.

  • It's Science Friday.

  • Every day, they put the latest science news under the microscope from the origin

  • of the universe to AI news you can actually use to the science of heavy metal screams.

  • In the evolutionary tree of podcasts, I'd say Science Friday is on the same branch as Brains On.

  • The show stokes your curiosity and pulls back the curtain on some of the most interesting science happening today.

  • One of their hosts, Flora Lichtman, was a debater on this most recent season of Smash Boom Best,

  • representing bass in the bass versus bass debate.

  • She's awesome.

  • We love her so much.

  • So try Science Friday wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Brains On Universe.

  • Thinking critically is more important than ever.

  • That's why we make Smash Boom Best.

  • We want every kid to know how to spot a good argument and how to call out a logical fallacy.

  • But none of it is possible without your support.

  • Seriously, we could disappear if our listeners don't step up.

  • But that part is easy.
