Manage episode 431570977 series 3487935
It's Weird News Time!
First up, we've got sharks off the coast of Brazil getting an unexpected high—turns out these sea creatures tested positive for cocaine! Is it a new species of "party sharks," or are we just witnessing the side effects of ocean pollution? Join us as we unravel the mystery behind these cokehead cartilaginous fish.
Next, we jump into the cosmos with news that sounds straight out of a sci-fi movie—a warp drive that might actually work within known physics! Is Star Trek about to become reality, or is this just another case of science fiction creeping into the lab? We'll break down the science (or lack thereof) behind this groundbreaking concept and speculate on when we can expect to zip across the galaxy at warp speed.
