Hello and welcome to SciShow Tangents, the Lightly Competitive Science Knowledge Showcase.

0:21.4

Hank is on Spring Break, so this week I'm your host, I'm Siri Riley, and joining me

0:27.5

this week, as always, is our resident, every man, Sam Schultz. Hello. And taking my place on the

0:33.2

science couch is Tangents editorial assistant and co-host of the podcast Tiny Matters,

Deboki Chakravarti. Hello. Did you think of a question for us, Siri? I did think of a question for you.

0:43.7

This is, I thought of it really with Deboki in mind because I've been wanting to ask her this

0:48.4

question just at and fast part of our friendship, so you can also answer that. I'm excited. Nobody ever

0:54.6

asked me any questions. That's fine. No, it's for both of you. So if a casting director came up to

1:50.4

that task. That's an important part of being on the amazing race is knowing who you'd be partnered with.

1:54.9

I guess there was one season where they were paired up with strangers, but still you got to know.

2:00.2

Yeah, I could not do it with a stranger. I could not just be like, yeah, I'm going to trust
