On this episode, Ellie takes us to her Chemistry class to learn about isotopes and radioactive "cures" for illness throughout the years. Then, Abby talks about an...interesting experiment on a poor innocent baby by some mad man who (incorrectly) assumed that babies were amphibious and couldn't drown. Oh, you have follow up questions? Listen and find out what we're talking about!
