The deadly drug everyone is taking

30 jun 2026

Peptides are extremely popular right now. They are injectable short chain amino acids that claim to make people healthier, heal from injury and live longer. Science is now finding that they could cause cancer, and maybe result in early death. So what is going on with peptides? Are influencers ruining science?

This substance could revolutionize human waste

12 may 2026

What if we could stop billions of tires from becoming pure waste? Turns out, we may be closer than you think! We partnered with Hyundai Canada and McMaster University to help highlight an incredible project aiming to turn tire waste into hockey pucks. Following some breakthrough science by the team at McMaster, they’ve not only been successful in the creation of a ‘green’ puck, but have also been able to take the principles further by turning used tires into a silicone. This not only uses waste material that would otherwise end up in a landfill, but also significantly reduces the environmental impact of the silicone itself! You can check out Professor Brook's breakthrough research here: https://www.sciencedirect.com/org/science/article/abs/pii/S1434193X22050733 And their initiative to transform tires into useful materials here: https://www.neoparaco.com/home

The shoes that broke walking

24 oct 2025

Thanks to Nike for sponsoring this video! Today we're trying some of their wildest new tech: Project Amplify which powers your running and walking, Mind One which calms your mind, Air Milano which adapts and regulates temperature and Aero-FIT which is fully recycled material but performs better than other high performance jersey's. Nike asked me to come to their headquarters and meet with their engineers, designers and scientists to see the innovation and science behind some of their new sportswear. Project Amplify is the first powered shoe designed for running and walking and such an interesting experience to try! Mind One and Mind Two use haptic stimulation of the feet in order to stimulate parts of the brain associating with feeling calm and focused. Aero-FIT is a material made out of waste that has been turned into a high performance yarn, and Nike Air Milano will be launched at this coming Winter Olympics for Team USA - it's a jacket that uses the properties of inflatable air pockets to keep you warm, but they can also deflate when you want to cool down.

Why is everyone suddenly neurodivergent?

23 sept 2025

What is REALLY causing the increase in autism diagnosis since the early 1990s? Is it pollution? Is it plastics? Is it Tylenol? Is it screen time? Today we explain the up to date science and research, because right now people are trying to claim that Tylenol use during pregnancy is the main reason. This information is important as ASD has been increasing in recent years, but science and research has answers outside of one specific claim. It is important that we share this video, and people understand the real cause of increased ASD diagnoses, and also why focusing on ONE CAUSE is not the real issue here.
