Hey everybody, Sam here. Last week's butt episode was, as we mentioned our season 3 finale,

0:06.0

and before we jump into season 4, we're taking a week off to recharge our brains and our funny

0:10.6

bones, so we've got a classic episode for you this week. Before we get to that, I'd be

0:15.1

remiss if I didn't mention that Sarri was the overall season 3 winner with 21 wins to my 16.

0:22.0

Congratulations Sarri, all your time at MIT paid off. We'll see you next week to kick off season 4,

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

1:42.7

like it said, sticking its spine through its throat, which is not what happens. It just pushes

1:48.4

its neck up into its pouch to increase the surface area for its blood vessels, which if you don't

1:55.1

know what we're talking about, it's a terrible thing that pelicans do to cool off. Sam, what's your

1:59.6

tagline? Small little man who lives in a tree stump. Siri Riley is also joining us today. What's

2:05.5

your tagline? Too much dirt. And I'm Hank Green. My tagline is always tick-tockin. Always,

2:11.8

right now. I'm tick-tocking now. Every week here on SciShow Tangents, we get together to try
