Introducing Explain Like I'm 5

Hey, it's Janice from Warner Brothers Discovery.

I stopped believing in the idea of boredom a long time ago because there's so much to be

interested in and every time I walk out my friend door, I have a million questions about

why and how and yeah, just how does the world work, you know?

Just the other morning, I was walking down the street and I thought to myself,

why are the power lines above ground? Wouldn't it be safer if they were below the ground where

the wind and storms and falling limbs couldn't get to them?

If you two were walking through the world with big curiosity about anything and everything,

I've got a great podcast for you. It's called Explain Like I'm Five.

In each bite-sized episode hosts Tim and Kevin Answer a single question,

like, why do sunrise and sunset look different?

Why do rubber bands become brittle over time?

You know what, they even answered my power line question.

Sometimes I want a little audio snack instead of listening to a half hour or hour long show

and Explain Like I'm Five is just that.

The episodes run from about five to eight minutes and Tim and Kevin do a great job of

making the answer succinct and clear and approachable.

I walk away knowing so much more about the world, but then I have more questions and,

well, I mean, I can only assume that they're going to answer the questions on the show another time.

Take a listen.

Explain Like I'm Five is a podcast where we take the questions you always wanted to ask

and talk about them in a way that's easy to understand.

We are your hosts. I'm Tim.

And I'm Kevin.

And we're here to answer those curious questions like

why caffeine gives you energy but has zero calories.

Or why do some people get mosquito bites more than others?

Or one reason one, why is it so hard to run in your dreams?

Oh yeah, I had that problem last night.

I also really loved our dopamine episode.

You know, is it a feel-good drug?

Oh yeah, it's not, is it?

No, that's right. That's right. It's not.

Or how about the one we did on the national debt?

Oh yes, I remember that one.

Where we ask mood to countries actually, oh, when they're in debt.

Right. So if you're interested in those topics or others,

so come listen to us on the Explain Like I'm Five podcast.
