Shear Bounce in Every Ounce

Is that a slogan for hair shampoo or fizzy drinks? Well, kick back, relax, and crack open a can—or, you know, be like us and choose from one of the many flat ones you forgot on your desk. Either way, if you’re serious about your bubbles, Julian has a proposition for you: skip the middleman and suckle straight from the teat of the soda fountain. On the flip side, Trace embarks on a trek to the follicular frontier to discover how much hair you’d have to grow to actually lose weight. It’s a hairy situation, but we’re all about life hacks on this show! QUESTIONS Julian: “What would it take to pour a Coke without losing any of the carbonation?” from Macks Trace: “How much hair do I need to grow to lose weight?” from Emilie Do 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?

On the flip side, Trace embarks on a trek to the follicular frontier to discover how much hair you’d have to grow to actually lose weight. It’s a hairy situation, but we’re all about life hacks on this show!
