If you haven’t seen on tiktok/youtube/insta, the folks at Scientific American have been letting me do truly the silliest videos and I couldn’t be prouder of this one

Scientific American @sciam.bsky.social · 9d

Every year, the Ig Nobel Prizes honor the weirdest and most wonderful science out there—like studying how drunk bats fly or the physics of perfect pasta. It’s all real research, and it’s all hilariously brilliant. Because sometimes science makes you laugh… then think.

When I was working there, the Kickstarter United crew taught me so much about organizing, solidarity, and fighting to be an example for the rest of tech in a time when it seems an unrelenting maw of doom. I’ll be watching and supporting them and you should too!

For my science game show I let players choose any sound they want for their buzzer, even if they don’t know what it is.

Please enjoy one of my favorite moments from the show.
