Some day we will have "Simp"s - Strongly Interacting Massive Particles XD Love Chuck, he's honestly amazing and makes the show super fun

[luuketaylor]

I went through all the same emotions here - shock, then righteous indignation, then "oh, it's an acronym..."

[Regular-Sized]

“The particle has no emotional investment in its name.”

Or maybe we’re just not listening to hear their objections 😔

[JustMe-puxm]

These two guys can definitely have a Sitcom together, They are funny.

Imagine Cixin Liu's remembrance of earth trilogy being real, and an entire universe finding out it's just called a wimp

[alexgagnon]

This perfectly outlines why this show is that good;
Amazingly relevant guests,
A relaxed and fun atmosphere
And some wrestler dude.

[leemiles]

You know chuck being present in this makes these casts watchable educating people for the better....

[robjohnston]

You know .... sometimes, trying to get a laugh out of EVERYTHING just gets OLD and gets in the way of the fun!

[bretsheeley]

"These names are strange." "No, that's a different quark."

[michaelallen]
