  • From the brains behind Brains On, it's Smash Boom Best.

  • The show for people with big opinions.

  • Hi, I'm Molly Bloom and this is Smash Boom Best, the show where we take two things,

  • smash them together, and ask you to decide which one is best.

  • Today's debate zooms out to the farthest reaches of space,

  • then back into the tiniest details of life on Earth.

  • It's telescopes versus microscopes.

  • We've got astronomer Mark Popinchock here to leave you starry-eyed for team telescopes.

  • Tell your family, tell your friends, tell everyone, the best tool is a telescope.

  • And writer and producer Manika Wilhelm will fill you with Marvel for team microscopes.

  • My girl, but mighty, we're sculpting stuff that's tiny.

  • And here to judge it all is Yasmin from Vancouver, Canada.

  • Yasmin is a gray belt in jujitsu, loves making her own Halloween costumes,

  • is fluent in Japanese, and once did an entire Smash Boom Best style debate with her dad.

  • Hi Yasmin.

  • Konnichiwa.

  • Hi.

  • Hi. So what were the sides you and your dad represented in your debate?

  • So it was apples versus oranges since I love apple juice, and my dad is strongly orange juice,

  • so we decided to have a debate about that and I won.
