That's Absurd Please Elaborate

This week on the pod, Julian makes a groundbreaking discovery: contrary to popular belief, humans and squid are, in fact, very different animals. One species commonly needs glasses, and the other…sometimes may also need glasses? Meanwhile, Trace tries to figure out if sound could travel slower in the dark, and the answer is yes! As long as you’re okay with being instantly vaporized. 😊 QUESTIONS Julian: “Do squid need glasses?” from Kristine Trace: “Does sound travel slower in a dark room?” from Leroy Do you have an absurd question?

This week, Trace turns a completely normal human behavior into a full-blown scientific investigation, uncovering how airflow, temperature, and mouth geometry can make you feel like you’re secretly developing budget-tier superpowers. Meanwhile, Julian takes a bold step forward for both science and dairy by stress-testing the limits of cheese in a scenario it was never meant to survive. Along the way: thermodynamics, questionable engineering choices, and the realization that just because something can exist in a lava-like state doesn’t mean it should. QUESTIONS Julian: “How much cheese could protect the space shuttle?” from Adam Trace: “Why is it when you breathe like hooo it’s cold but when you breathe like haaaaa it’s hot?” from Tater Do you have an absurd question?

Description Hi all! As I'm sure those of you with the patience to sit through the end credits know, the show is edited and produced by Kyle Sisk. Kyle is the glue holding this podcast together, taking the loose collection of pocket lint that makes up the brains of the two hosts and stitching it together into a beautiful audio tapestry. Without Kyle there truly would be no show. How do we know this? Because this week, we had no Kyle. Kyle came down with COVID and this man STILL tried to get an episode cut together in time for our regular upload. Ultimately we decided his recovery is more important than an arbitrary deadline for a silly show where we're probably going to be talking about dogs made of spaghetti or something, and so this week will be another of our old favorites. Please enjoy! In this episode, it's a battle of (nit)wits! Trace discovers the deadly truth about poison immunity while Julian figures out how to make the worst numbering system imaginable. Questions Julian: "Can you still do maths using a unary (base 1) numeral system?" from Mason Trace: "How long would it have taken Westley to build up his immunity to iocaine powder?" from Tessa Do you have an absurd question? Maybe it's silly idea you had, a shower thought about the nature of reality, or a ridiculous musing about your favorite food? If you want an answer, no matter the question, tell us!

Hey all! This week, we're rebroadcasting a very memorable TAPE episode from last June to give ourselves a bit of a break: Julian's flight school classes started up again in full force and Trace is traveling back and forth to Brazil to visit his partner while they're undergoing their IVF journey. Don't you fret, though, because this episode contains ⚡️SHOCKING⚡️ and 🪽SOARING🪽 content! Trace tries to inhale a lethal dose of ozone from a bunch of sweaters and Julian finally receives free rein to talk about aviation as much as he wants... but not in the way you'd expect. Thanks for tuning in, and see you next week with a brand new episode! — Setting: Dry, warm evening in a small pub in Los Angeles. Deputy Julian: "Whew-whee! What's that smell?!" Detective Kyle (with a light drawl): "That's ozone, Julian. Something out of this world happened in this English phone box." Dep. Julian (looking up at the sky): "By out of this world…you mean up there in the sky?" Det. Kyle: sighs heavily Dep. Julian: "I'm going to go check!" Julian unfurls his giant grotesque wings. After a few large flaps, he has risen into the air. He begins sweating profusely. Dep. Julian: "GAH, I should've taken off this heavy sweatshirt!" Det. Kyle: Pulls out his bubble pipe "Bye, LaForge. I think you've got it!" QUESTIONS Julian: "Could humans ever actually evolve to have the ability to fly? How hard would it be?" from Madeline Trace: "How many sweatshirt you have to remove to inhale a lethal dose of ozone created by static discharge?" from Phillippe Do you have an absurd question? Maybe it's silly idea you had, a shower thought about the nature of reality, or a ridiculous musing about your favorite food? If you want an answer, no matter the question, tell us!

In this episode, we learn that Julian will never be employed as a telegraph operator, but he might have a future as a Soviet janitor named Ivan who works at a nuclear research facility and collects spicy dead pigeons in his spare time. It's OK, the CIA left them for him, he's not weird. Meanwhile, Trace discovers that the world does not in fact revolve around himself… or anyone else, for that matter.

This week, Trace takes a closer look at one of the boldest maneuvers in pirate cinema: whether a determined crowd could actually flip something the size of an aircraft carrier by running from one side to the other like in documentary “Pirates of the Caribbean.” Meanwhile, Julian investigates the logistics of purchasing the Sun—who exactly you’d pay for it, what ownership might legally mean, and how tempting it would be to start charging the planet a small recurring fee for access to daylight.

This week, we’re rewriting the rules of life, starting at the molecular level and ending 250 miles above Earth. Julian digs into what would happen if our genetic code were triple-stranded like the Time Lords from Doctor Who. Except, TNA does exist (just not the way you think), and triple-stranded DNA isn’t possible… or is it? Meanwhile, all-star guest and fart-gun connoisseur Lieven Scheire phones a friend who casually happens to be a former ISS commander to figure out how long astronauts could survive if everyone on Earth vanished, breaking it down into the four things you have to consider: water, oxygen, fuel, and cannibalism—wait, sorry, food!

This week on the most serious, most dramatic podcast ever recorded, Trace finally takes Archimedes up on his little boast: “Give me a lever and I can move the world.” Bold claim from a man who’s never seen a 1999 Toyota Corolla. Meanwhile, Julian enters the stickiest thought experiment imaginable—yep, even stickier than trying to eat a spoonful of peanut butter with absolutely nothing to wash it down.

This week, Julian—hoping to crown the true MVP of the animal kingdom—drafts the ultimate basketball beast, while Trace turns up the heat to find out whether we’re actually sweating in hot showers and, more deliciously, how many workouts it would take to perfectly season an omelette with his own hard-earned salt.

Anyone who’s ever had to educate a talking donkey would know, onions have layers (just like ogres). But, just like in the story with the giant, green, scottish (?) ogre — it’s important to remember the lessons behind the fables! Like the tortoise and the hare, which reminds us that even if the tortoise doesn’t win the race, it’ll outlive a rabbit by several decades. Take that RABBIT. QUESTIONS Julian: "At what distance race would a tortoise actually be likely to beat a hare?" from Patreon poll winner Nick Trace: "What is the half-life of an onion? If it was hypothetically preserved could it radioactive decay? How long would it take?" from Bynzyldyhydeditoximonothaixyprophine Do you have an absurd question? Maybe it's a silly idea that popped into your head, a shower thought about the nature of reality, or a ridiculous musing about your favorite food?

Like Boromir said, "It is a gift! Let us use it against them!" The internet has been taken over by #lofi girls, so we commissioned an artist to turn Julian and Trace into our own #lofigirl for the holidays! (Is it a lofi girl? are we lofi guys? We're honestly not sure. Either way, we did it!!) We love you all! Thanks for making 2025 such an amazing year (for our little community) even though it was generally a terrible year for gestures broadly. Hope this can being a little light to your holiday season. Enjoy the wintery lofi beats interspersed with #holiday-themed fun facts! See you in 2026! QUESTIONS Trace: 🎶 The First Yule Log — the angels did say, was filmed by a crew who burned a rug that day Julian: “Cutting down a tree outside and bringing it inside is the behavior of a drunk person” - Julian (paraphrasing Jim Gaffigan) Trace: "Why is it ‘Merry’ Christmas, but ‘Happy’ for every other day?” - Matt P. Julian: TIRED: Putting candles on a dry flammable tree WIRED: Literally just lights Trace: Was Rudolph Red-nosed because someone was on shrooms? Julian: A misprinted phone number with national security implications. Do you have an absurd question?

If your life had a soundtrack what would it be? Up-tempo action music? Epic orchestral swells? Romantic… xylophones? Are xylophones romantic? We don’t know, we’re podcasters, not EGOT-winning music producers of screen and stage. Maybe it’s a good thing you can’t hear what’s in our heads… aside from on this show where we say everything in our heads, obviously. In this episode Trace explores what it might be like if the music in your head had a public feed. Meanwhile Julian tries to figure out what he couldn’t do even if he had all the time in the world. Seriously, all of it. QUESTIONS Julian: "What can we NOT achieve with enough time?" from Shane Trace: "What if you could hear someone else’s life soundtrack?" from Rebecca Do you have an absurd question? Maybe it's a silly idea that popped into your head, a shower thought about the nature of reality, or a ridiculous musing about your favorite food?

We did another live show!! I’m not sure how we convinced the Bay Area Science Festival that we are a legitimate podcast, but, hey, people actually showed up to watch the show in-person in San Francisco. We had an extremely tight window, and are famously (infamously?) long-winded, so in this episode special guest Dr Wallace Marshall ponders the nightmare of giant tardigrades, and Trace looks into the availability of gluttony… you know, for science. If you want to have our show on the road to you — send us an email at hello at thatsabsurdshow.com ! QUESTIONS Trace: "At an all you can eat buffet, is there some point at which you can just keep eating as much more food as you want without gaining any additional weight or blood sugar or whatever?" from guest Dr. Marshall Wallace of UCSF Marshall: "What would happen if tardigrades were bigger?" from listener Kristina Do you have an absurd question?
