3 Scientists Walk Into a Bar

S1, EP3 "Electric Weather"

Hosts are using mortar fireworks, Tasers, homemade lightning and ten thousand ping pong balls to get to the answers about lightning.

So three scientists walk into a bar and... explain scientific topics. Although it may seem like it, the title of this series isn't the beginning of a joke, but it does help illustrate what the show is about. The three scientists in question are astrophysicist/aerospace engineer Travis Taylor, statistician Tara Long and science fanatic/podcast host Anthony Carboni. In each episode, the hosts -- who, as the title suggests, are in a pub setting -- answer viewer questions, with a focus on natural phenomena and weather patterns. Educational -- and sometimes explosive -- demonstrations and experiments are part of the routine because, let's face it, science is more fun with explosive demonstrations.

Maritime mysteries -- old and new -- come to life in this series, combining scientific data and digital re-creations to reveal shipwrecks, treasures, and sunken cities on the bottom of lakes, seas and oceans around the world. Innovative technology allows viewers to see what lies on the floors of large bodies of water such as the Gulf of Mexico, the Nile, the Indian Ocean, the Baltic Sea and the Atlantic Ocean as if they had been drained.
