Hello and welcome to Sci Guys, the show where we talk about the crazy, weird and wonderful stories from the science world.

0:13.8

I'm Corey, and as always, I'm joined by my co-host, the lexographic Luke Cutford.

0:18.8

Is that something to do with words?

0:33.2

This week we're talking about dial sexy or sexy lax.

But first, we have to thank our patrons, because they voted for this one.

0:39.6

Thank you. Thank you, I think. We'll find out.

0:43.8

If you want to be a patron, head over to our Patreon at patreon.com forward slash SciGyguise.

Or at SciGyguise.com forward slash Patreon. We've made it very easy and also somehow very confusing for you. But that's not all we've got to do. We've also got a question to ask.

As in you're a fool and you gave the definition.
