    Michelin Stars
    Apr 15 2024

    This week, we’re dining out (heh) and discussing the crème de la crème when it comes to restaurants. Most everyone knows about Michelin tires, but did you know that this same company is responsible for grading the top restaurants in the world? That’s right — the company that makes the tires many of you drive on every day is responsible for handing out Michelin Stars. This is one of our favorite episodes.

    Blimps
    May 13 2022

    Blimps are a true marvel of technical achievement. I guess you’d say that. It sounds like the pep talk blimps need in order to keep going. Don’t worry about the setbacks of the Hindenburg, the further advancement of the airplane, and nowadays don’t even worry about the increase use of drones. I mean you don’t hear people asking if their new drone is rigid or semi-rigid. Take that flying car industry. Like that’s gonna catch on. Stay tuned for Blimps as we take you from non-rigid to semi-rigid on this centennial episode of Tell Me What You Know. Here's to the next 100 episodes.

    Feb 18 2022
    In this episode of Tell Me What You Know we’re taking a look at a couple conspiracies. We’ve covered conspiracies in the past but we thought we would return to a couple that might make your neck hair tingle. First up, we look at another one of these right wing stories of a child sex trafficking ring, this time at a butterfly center in Texas. Those spreading this story would lead you to believe the National Butterfly Center in Mission, Texas is not actually helping caterpillars make their metamorphosis into a beautiful butterfly but in fact the center of a plot to facilitate child sex trafficking. We dig into how this story got started and why the 100-acre preserve decided to close it’s doors. Then, we’re looking at that big shiny object in the sky, earth’s little cousin, the Moon. Learn about a number of conspiracies that have spread through the years and at least one that has an annoying man punched in the face by Buzz Aldrin. Take this journey with us as we find out what’s on the Dark side of the moon, welcome to Tell Me What You Know.
