@@TinfoilHatWearer Don't think so. RUclipsrs have hundreds of videos over the years they don't release because they either don't think it's good, it isn't ready yet, or they are backlogging for future months to not rush content.

well you see, they tried that thing where you make a clone with two sets of dna, and they just fuse the best of both. Not shown on camera, but he can eat all he wants but tragically he also doesn't like any food
Well just do the math. A normal 9-5 day, 15 mins + 15 gmmore (okay I'll give them 1h ) filming time = 40 episodes a week! Even if they only filmed 3 a day it'd be 15 vids in one week!
One, probably a joke. Two, some people actually don't realize that the iron that you need to consume is the same iron that is a metal (which isn't helped by the fact that a lot of things get colloquially referred to as something they're not).

So amazing to finally see Mike on the show! When he said: "Guys, I watch the show", my heart swell thrice it size. Please have him back! Even if it is for: Is it mushy 😂.
Considering he has no college education, I think he is doing fine. He is not nor does he claim to be a scientist. I'm surprised he didn't correct the crew for putting scientist on his coat - normally he is adamant about others knowing he isn't a scientist. He's just a guy that loves science and researches everything on his own. Kind of amazing really. Give him a break on pronunciation.
I have quite literally have always waited for at least 1 of their guests to say that at the end, "guys, I watch the show, I know what to say" YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS!!!!!!!
3:11 LMFAO! Oh my gosh, it's so hard to watch Link eat eggs like that! 11:38 LOVE! 13:54 Rhett: "Don't let any of that drip on you." *Link puts them directly near his eyes* LOL
Having someone who actually knows what they are talking about science-wise on this show is amazing! Dunno if I’d like it for every episode but for an occasional thing I think it’s great!
Just letting you know "Science Mike" isn't actually a scientist, he just reads science books and googles stuff. This is an excerpt from his own website: "Now, in terms of expertise, I do not hold any degree at all. I didn't go to college at all, so I have no formal education in the sciences or theology. I'm a self-made technologist and business person."
