  • Soda, Crackers, and the Bucket that can Never Go Back
    Oct 19 2026

    Your kid throws up at two in the morning, and somehow the whole house already knows what to do. You move the patient, assign a bucket, put your hand on the forehead. And then comes the soda (7Up, ginger ale, flat Coke). Nobody taught you any of this and nobody looked it up.


    This week we take apart the sick-kid routine and find out that the drink was never the point.

  • Learning Styles and Other Things Grandma Made Up
    Jul 25 2026

    Your grandmother was wrong about cracking your knuckles. She was right about the honey. And that thing about learning styles? That's not science. That's folklore wearing a lab coat.

    In this episode, host Aaron Crawford walks you through how folk beliefs work, using learning styles as an example. So listen up, even if you're a visual learner.
