Hello and welcome to SciShow Tangents, the lightly competitive knowledge showcase I'm

your host Hank Green, and joining me this week as always is Science Expert, Siri Rylee.

Hello, I'm very much not an expert on this week's topic, so maybe you can change it to

enthusiast this time. Are you even enthusiastic about this week's topic? No, I'm not. This topic

has intimidated me all throughout all my school. Wow, we have a lot of the same feelings about

science. You and I. It's oftentimes we are our unenthusiastms line of, well, and we're also joined

by our resident, every man, Sam Schultz, Sam. Hi, you are more enthusiastic about this topic because

will be crowned the winner. As always, we're going to introduce this week's topic with the

traditional science poem this week. It's from Sam. I have to set this one up a little bit.

My, for some reason, my Spotify has decided to play me randomly, Alan Ginsburg poems.

All the time, and I cannot make it stop doing it. So I decided to embrace it and write a beat poem

for today's poem. So we're, we're a problem to have. It's a weird problem. I don't know why it's
