About this listen
In this episode, Bryan and Patrick dive deep into the science of sound — starting with history's loudest recorded event: the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa, which reached over 180 decibels and was heard 3,000 miles away. From there, they explore how decibels actually work, debunking the common myth that a 100-watt amp is twice as loud as a 50-watt one — spoiler: it's only a 3dB difference. The guys also get into nature's wildest audio weapons, including the pistol shrimp's 218-decibel snap, and wrap up with a look at how sound has been weaponized through technology like LRADs. Ear protection not included.
Bryan's new record just hit too. Check it out! https://music.apple.com/us/artist/madrigals-for-mongrels/1771659673
