Jun 13, 2022 Season 1 Episode 16
Will Riihiluoma and Ian McKeag

It takes a man like Paul Rudd to pull of Ant-Man. And it takes a team of quantum powered heroes to save the day via building shrinking and Pez-dispenser-growing powers. But there's a trick about changing the scale of an object -- and that's exactly what Will and Ian explore in this episode!

Topics Include

  • How great LOST is
  • The lore of Toy Story
  • A Star Wars fight
  • Ant-Man and the Wasp and the Square-Cube Law
  • Ian's failure to come up with real life examples
  • Airships!
  • Where do days, hours, and minutes come from?
