They doubted us. They told us we were crazy. They said it we would never be able to accomplish this, that it would be too much for any one podcast to handle alone. BUT WE DID IT. WE FINISHED SEASON ONE OF THE FLASH, HATERS. Who exactly are these haters, you ask? Doesn’t matter, moving on. In this episode, Caitlin and Nicole discuss the last episode of season one of The Flash and the first episode of season two of The Flash with their excellent friend Natalie!
Read MoreCaitlin and Nicole are joined by their friend Talya to talk about more ridiculous science in The Flash!
Read MoreMichael took a break from packing up his cabin in Alaska in preparation to moving to the North Pole to discuss two more episodes of The Flash with us!
Read MoreSpace Nicole is back to talk about The Flash, and she doesn’t even want to fight Nicole Prime for the title of “Supreme Nicole of the Nerdy Podcasts”! That is a huge relief to Nicole Prime. She did not want to rain fire and destruction on her friend.
Read MoreWe’re a big fan of siblings on this show, and this time Caitlin’s brother Ryan joins us to talk about our old, reliable, science-baddie, The Flash.
Read MoreWe welcome back special guest Madicken because this episode is about more nuclear nonsense in The Flash.
Read MoreOkay, 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].
Read MoreOur guest this episode is not a scientist. In fact, you might say that he’s the reverse.

Read MoreWe open on an electricity vampire. What? You haven’t heard of electricity vampires? They’re the black sheep of the Dracula family, obviously. Oh yes, my friends, The Flash gave us an electricity vampire.
Read MoreBomb Chicka Wow Wow! We first discuss bombs and how they cause damage through overpressure. Cool fact: When the writing team of The Flash writes down a number, there is a 92% chance they made it up. Then we discuss the physics of fighting and go through a bunch of calculations related to supersonic punches. Hey! Don’t tune me out now! It’s fuuuuun math about puuunches, okay, listeners. Fun math.
Read MoreThe four states of matter are solid, liquid, gas, and DNA that can sublimate into a gas, right? We discuss the probability that a person could turn himself into a gas cloud and how difficult it would be to cure hydrogen cyanide poison. Then we segue into talking about Nicole’s favorite villain, Captain Cold, and what we like to call (and this is the scientific term) “absolute zero nonsense.”
Read MoreIt’s the origin story of our favorite red speedster, the Flash! First, we talk about the real-life effects of lightning strikes on the body (spoiler: you probably won’t get superpowers, but you might get psychic powers?) and tornadogenesis.
