Episode 1: That's Not How Stem Cells Work | E1 & E2 of The Flash

It’s the origin story of our favorite red speedster, the Flash! First, we talk about the real-life effects of lightning strikes on the body (spoiler: you probably won’t get superpowers, but you might get psychic powers?) and tornadogenesis. Then we discuss the fascinating field of therapeutic organ cloning, as well as the less fascinating field of employment contracts.
