Hi, this is Meg Walitzer.
"Explain Like I'm Five." Episodes are just five to eight minutes long and they cover
“really interesting questions like, "If caffeine has zero calories, how does it give me energy?"”
Mosquitoes, why does some people get bitten more than others? Or, my favorite from a few weeks ago,
can adults have ADD? As you can hear, they take the questions we all ask and explain them
in a way that is easy to understand. I'm going to play a one-minute trailer from the host's
“Tim and Kevin, so you get a feel for the show.”
Explain like I'm five as a podcast where we take the questions you always wanted to ask
and talk about them in a way that's easy to understand. We are your hosts, I'm Tim, and I'm Kevin, and we're here to answer those curious questions like, "Why caffeine gives you energy, but has zero calories?" Or, why does some people get mosquito bites more than others? Or, one reason, "Why is it so hard to run in your dreams?" Oh yeah, I had that problem last night. I also really loved our dopamine episode.
No, is it a feel good drug? Oh yeah, it's not is it? No, that's right, that's right, it's not. Or, "How about the one we did on a national debt?"
“Oh yes, I remember that one, where we asked, "Who do countries actually”
oh when they're in debt?" Right. So if you're interested in those topics or others, so come listen to us on the explain like I'm five podcasts. That's right, just search for explain like I'm five wherever you listen to your podcast. Go check it out. Search for the letters "ELI" and the number five, and it's the one with the blue background. Sometimes we want simple answers to complex questions, which is why we here at selected shorts are huge fans of
"ELI 5." We hope you'll enjoy it too.
