Description

The Ig Nobel Prizes honor achievements that make people LAUGH, then THINK. Truly, these awards celebrate the best and most brilliant studies we could ever conceive of, including how to make a knife out of human fecal matter. Hosted annually at Harvard, The Ig Nobel Prizes celebrate the ridiculous studies that make us ponder the absurdity of reality more than normal, terse, boring scientific papers do. In this episode we go through some of our favorite awards of the last few years and discuss their wider implications.

The longest running (and most popular) science podcast for those of us who got kicked out of class for throwing pencils at the ceiling. Adam and Noah are skeptical twin brothers whose separate journeys through professional science and engineering led them to a ridiculous notion: that reality is strange and barely understood. Unfortunately they just didn't have the attention span to listen to any science podcasts without wanting to gouge their eyes out with a spoon. If you've ever wanted to listen to more podcasts about cosmic quandaries, evolutionary mysteries, and giant creatures living underneath the ice of rogue planets but just can't stand academic rambling delivered with a nasally voice, then this podcast is for you.
