Shorts: It Might Be Science

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

This post is a reprint of a post by Jad Abumrad & Robert Krulwich that originally appeared at WNYC's Radiolab.

Jad and Robert with John Flansburgh of TMBG

They Might Be Giants just came out with a new album, “Here Comes Science.” So we invited them to come play with us at our season launch party last week at the Water Taxi Beach in Queens. And then we ambushed them with annoying little questions about science and about the tricky business of turning science into entertainment … because of that whole, you know, “getting the facts right” thing. On this podcast, we decided to share this magical evening with those of you who weren’t able to join us live. Hope you enjoy the music, pesky science teachers, and miasmas of plasma.
