A Normal Meets A Nerd - Episode 2

This week, Dylan dives into another round of mind-boggling questions for Darragh, starting with the classic conundrum: how long is a piece of string? 🪢 From there, they explore the nature of memory, uncover what humans can do better than animals without technology, and even figure out how vinyl records bring music to life. 🎶

Ever wondered why artificial banana flavor doesn’t taste like bananas? 🍌 Or what water actually tastes like? 💧 Dylan takes a crack at solving the energy crisis (with...questionable science), and the duo debates which came first, the chicken or the egg? 🐔🥚

Get ready for fun, facts, and more random questions you never realized you wanted the answers to! Don’t forget to send us your own burning questions for a future episode.
