Good Job, Brain! — Episode 13: It’s a Monster Mash! (2012-05-28)
Grrarr! We find possible scientific theories about the existence of popular monsters such as cyclops, unicorns, and the Loch Ness monster. We do some unnecessarily extensive research on how exactly would mermaids make merbabies, and sexy vampire lore. ALSO: monster body part quiz, what “Godzilla” actually means, a mnemonic that will help you memorize all of the 12 labors of Hercules in order, and the “Black & Blue” quiz. This is our first backer-dictated topic show. Thanks to Nathan M. for suggesting the topic! Couldn’t have done it without your support, dude.
