Random Theory: Recent Episodes
TKOR
Take chances, make mistakes and get messy! Random Theory is here to blow your mind and challenge the way we talk about science. A theory is: a plausible or scientifically acceptable general principal or body of principals offered to explain a phenomena. I’m Grace Dirig, your host and around here at TKOR we like to think the Random Theory best explains how we come up with ideas! Miss Frizzle was the first person to challenge the way I saw the world! Yeah, you know the super cool girl from the magic school bus? She taught me to take chances, make mistakes and get messy! Here at The King Of Random (TKOR) we take that statement far... sometimes a little too far. We may have “silly projects” but in reality there is REAL science that goes into every project! Science is a critical element to everything here on earth AND BEYOND! When you begin to let your imagination wonder, like we do here at TKOR, every single day involves curiosity, discovery, or learning something new! So if you’re ready, hop on the magic Random Theory bus and get curious as we explore every theory we can find!Have an advertising opportunity or just want to say hi? Email: randomtheorypod@gmail.com

Take chances, make mistake and get messy! Random Theory is here to blow your mind and challenge the known universe. The definition of a theory is: a plausible or scientifically acceptable general principal or body of principals offered to explain a phenomena. I’m Grace Dirig your host and my personal hero was Miss Frizzle who was the coolest teacher growing up and because of her encouragement, even though she was on television, I wasn’t afraid to take chances, make mistakes or get messy! Here at The King Of Random (TKOR) we take that statement a little far... sometimes too far. We may have “silly projects” but in reality there is REAL science that goes into every project...yes even the GIANT food videos! Science is a critical element to everything here on earth AND BEYOND! When you begin to let your imagination wonder, like we do here at TKOR, it seems every single day involves curiosity, discovery, or learning something new! So if you’re ready, hop on the magic TKOR bus, and let’s get curious as we explore every Random Theory we can find. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
