9. Daddy Daughter Talk Show
This is the Daddy Daughter Talkshow podcast. Despite the title, this is an innocent podcast, by which we mean we swear a lot, make poop jokes, discuss childhood trauma, and talk about science! It's a podcast where we explore our curiosity together and make sense of the world. It's a comedy podcast, a science podcast, and sometimes a foley work podcast.

10. The Pop Test
Science is a complicated and thankless task that can only be made worse for scientists by being put in a room with four comedians and having their field of study mocked and misunderstood by a panel. Which is why it brings us no joy as that's exactly what we've done with The Pop Test.
