Get your moisture sensors ready. In this episode Dr Alex Dainis slides into the scientific journals all about lubrication to understand the slip-factor of classic yellow bananas. Meanwhile, Julian argues with an actual, college educated PhD scientist about the wetness of molten lava. Is Julian actually… correct?!
QUESTIONS
Julian: "Is lava wet" from Marlene
Alex Dainis: "What food would be a better substitute for the ol' banana peel slipping gag?" from Gerald
