Random facts are only random because we don't know the context behind them. This podcast will fix all that by explaining the history, science, and cultural basis for every random fact you've ever wondered about.
The Closest Living Relative Of The T-Rex Is The Chicken
Like many young kids I was fascinated by dinosaurs growing up. The idea of these massive creatures roaming the Earth filled me with wonder and excitement. Stegosaurus was always my favorite personally. But for anyone disappointed that dinosaurs are no longer around I have some good news ... they are. They have just taken a very different form these days. A form that tastes great with barbeque sauce or honey mustard.

The Center Of Our Galaxy Is Made of Raspberry Rum
If you enjoy a nice cocktail and astronomy, than this is the episode for you. Now before you listen I will admit, I am stretching the definition of rum a bit. But please forgive me because like most episodes of this series I'm excited for the chance to share a random fact that takes us on so many wonderful tangents from the atomic orbitals of electrons to how raspberries get their flavor.

George Washington Carver Didn't Invent Peanut Butter, but He Did Save American Agriculture
There's nothing quite as satisfying as a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, no matter what your age. And as such a common treat, you might think we should spend an episode discussing the person who invented peanut butter. I thought it was invented by George Washington Carver, but I was wrong, and reading about him led me down an interesting journey about education, agriculture, and the healing powers of legumes. So take a listen to an episode about a man who cared so much about education, he made a classroom on wheels so he could travel and teach ... I have a feeling he would have loved the internet.
