The SCIENCE! - Season 8 (2023)

Why do we keep getting so many ads for Replika? It's insane, right? The sheer volume of weird memes? Well, fine then, let's dive into precisely how Replika works, as well as cover why it is so many of us seem to be getting so many ads for this app.

I actually happened upon a lot of this information totally by mistake. I didn't really have much to say about The Last of Us that hadn't already been said, but then I found out that the fungal invasion of our world is actually a thing that's already happening. It's really spooky stuff.

I know there isn't necessarily a lot of "science" going on here in the sense of "here's some mathematical facts" but it still felt like it was structured as a SCIENCEy video to me? I dunno, it just felt right, and this is my show and you can't stop me. I had a ton of fun making this video, and I hope you like watching it!

Okay, okay, okay, okay, OKAY, I was wrong, okay? You happy?! ARE YOU HAPPY!? MINECRAFT IS FLAT. HERE'S SOME SCIENCE. Ngl though, this was fun to make. How do you like the little Steve in the thumbnail? He's a cutie pie.

I channeled my inner MatPat/Game Theorist to talk, probably for the last (????) time about Five Nights at Freddy's, Poppy Playtime, Garten of Banban, and mascot horror games in general. Specifically, dipping into the psychological tricks and quirks that make mascot horror games so successful, particularly on YouTube.

I literally thought of this topic the instant I saw this scene in TOTK. I was like "oh there's no way he survives that fall. There's also no way I could do a whole video on just this one scene" and yet here we are.

Writer's block? COULDN'T BE ME. In this video I take a look at the crazy weather that Minecraft SHOULD have given their weird as heck biome system.
