Okay, we were on a hiatus due to boring work reasons/Caitlin being (kinda) useless when it comes to editing, but we are back, baby! We discuss the next two episodes of The Flash with Michael, who has returned from his off-the-grid life in [redacted] for reasons due to [redacted]. We start by talking about cochlear implants and tinnitus, which Nicole and Michael discovered that they both have! You’d think being siblings they would’ve figured that out before this episode! We also discuss resonance: what is it, what can it do, and what can it break? (Good news: not you). Then we talk about teleportation and light and who are we kidding ourselves… We mostly end up talking about Iris’s bad character development because the science is so patently wrong in this episode. It’s possible that Caitlin, Nicole, and Michael also consider themselves “critics” instead of just “science enthusiasts.” Folks, it’s only a problem if we become pretentious.
