    The Buffet Hates to See THIS Tardigrade Coming | LIVE from the Bay Area Science Festival
    Dec 4 2025
    We did another live show!! I’m not sure how we convinced the Bay Area Science Festival that we are a legitimate podcast, but, hey, people actually showed up to watch the show in-person in San Francisco. We had an extremely tight window, and are famously (infamously?) long-winded, so in this episode special guest Dr Wallace Marshall ponders the nightmare of giant tardigrades, and Trace looks into the availability of gluttony… you know, for science.If you want to have our show on the road to you — send us an email at hello at thatsabsurdshow.com !QUESTIONSTrace: "At an all you can eat buffet, is there some point at which you can just keep eating as much more food as you want without gaining any additional weight or blood sugar or whatever?" from guest Dr. Marshall Wallace of UCSFMarshall: "What would happen if tardigrades were bigger?" from listener KristinaDo you have an absurd question? Maybe it's a silly idea that popped into your head, a shower thought about the nature of reality, or a ridiculous musing about your favorite food?

  • Stuck in a Time Loop while ‘Doing Taxes’ | feat. Danielle Bezalel

    Stuck in a Time Loop while ‘Doing Taxes’ | feat. Danielle Bezalel
    Nov 20 2025
    If we say: Making whoopee. Polishing the broomstick. The pickle tickle. Shagging. Enjoying Taco Tuesday. Parking the beef bus in Tuna Town. Waxing the carrot. Boinking. Glazing donuts. Going downtown. … I think you get what we mean (right?)This week, special guest Danielle probes the terrible scenario where ‘Doing Taxes’ was more like actually filing financial paperwork than going for a roll in the hay. Meanwhile, Trace gets stuck in some kind of time loop (no groundhogs were harmed in the answering of this question).In case the above wasn’t clear: This episode definitely acknowledges the existence of sex.QUESTIONSTrace: "What’s the maximum number of times you could have déjà vu in a row before you’d get stuck in some kind of time loop?" from Danielle BezalelDanielle: "What if “doing taxes" wasn’t fun (didn’t feel good)?” from Constant ListenerDo you have an absurd question?

This podcast is fantastic. The perfect combination of science and chaos. I learn something new every episode and it never fails to make me laugh.
10/10 Stars, Rainbows, Cat Paws, or whatever it is we're using now.

Absolutely Amazing!
