Why do humans die of old age?

How does the body... like... work?!

We’re back for our second season of everyone’s favorite educational, marijuana-related podcast! In this episode, the boys dive into how the body works—from muscles, to brains, to something called “lymph”, they discuss almost every system in the body and how it does its job. And of course, their bodies have a healthy amount of THC doing its job as well.  For more episodes of scHIGHence, visit our website at www.buzzsprout.com/1510018 [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1510018].

What is sound...and does it exist?

In this episode, the boys talk about all things "sound"! Like, what is it? If a tree falls and no one's around to hear it, does it make any? What's the sound barrier and how do we store sound files on a computer? Tune in to learn more and also to hear Brandon call himself the "answer daddy" (which we know you've all secretly been waiting for).
