So most people know us as the 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 1: founders of Mental Flaws. In fact, we should say hello 5 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: to the brilliant people at Mental Flaws. Hello, brilliant people 6 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,159 Speaker 1: at Mental flass. But we've been itching to start a 7 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: podcast and ready to start something new, so we joined 8 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: the House Stuff Works family to launch a brand new podcast. 9 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,799 Speaker 1: It's a show called Part Time Genius and it starts 10 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: June seven. That's right, that's when our first four episodes drop. 11 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: This show has our chance to find the answers to 12 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: many of the ridiculous questions we've had over the years. 13 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,959 Speaker 1: Will we ever live without sleep? How do Ratz keep 14 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: out smarting humans? Which personality test should I believe in? 15 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: Is cryonics real? These are just some of the questions 16 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 1: will be tackling, and along the way we'll be linking 17 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,840 Speaker 1: things that probably shouldn't be linked, like why is James 18 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 1: Bond always hanging out in tax havens? And what pterodactyls 19 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: had in common with iron rand By the way, the 20 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: answer is everything. They've got everything in common with iron 21 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: rands of course, we have zero intention of connecting the 22 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: dots alone. In each episode will invite a pair of 23 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: listeners to play a game with us.
