Hereโ€™s what we look like trying to hit a 4 part harmony, and you can hear what that sounds like on todayโ€™s episode! ๐ŸŽถ

But why is it that we like the sound of harmony so much in the first place?

The wonderful DavidBennetPiano helps us answer that and all of our musical inquiries!

Wait, what kind of trading cards did you bring? Are those what trading cards used to look like??

Huh, you're one of the most curious trees to talk to... although... CAN we even talk to each other? Or is that just a pop sci myth??

If only there was a podcast episode about exactly these 2 things!!

This week Ify Nwadiwe (@ifycomedy.com) joins us to look at the physics of D&D's infamous Peasant Railgun, and Tom helps him devise something even better with real science!

Can cats count?? Let's test it.

On episode 79 of Let's Learn Everything Tom taught us that horses can count! When apples are dropped into two buckets a horse will go to the one with more apples. Ella tried to recreate that experiment with her cats and treats. Can they count?
