What is this, science class?! Well, this week, yeah!

What's new with the 2020 Olympics and what do you think SHOULD be new? Is Earth facing it's 6th (that we know of) mass extinction of species? Many scientists seem to think so. Of course, Travis is only concerned with the thoughts of one scientist: Beakman.

Thank so much all you beautiful snowflakes!

Yawn and stretch and try to come to life, it's time for another Monday Mini-sode! With both hosts in the same room for the first time!

First, thanks to everyone for sending in suggestions for Wi-Fives! It's nice to be reminded of the positivity that can exist in the world!

In a weird story this week, a dude legally changed his name to avoid paying a ridiculous airline fee to change the name on his ticket. We're not sure how we feel about this, but it eventually leads to teleporting to Boise.

There's so much to cover this week! Where to start?! Where to begin?! Interrobang?!

Dwayne "Formerly Know as The Rock" Johnson lined up 105 people and did something record breaking with them. An artist might be selling screen caps of your Instagrams for $90,000. Apparently the Internet has decided to be upset about racially blind casting. What are the odds that your job could be done by a robot in 20 years? And finally: IF YOU MASTURBATE YOUR HANDS WILL GET PREGNANT IN THE AFTERLIFE (according to one Televangelist). All that plus our Wi-Five of the week.
