Hosted by Jonah Ray.
Welcome the first show that proves how exciting, hilarious, and sometimes dangerous, homegrown science can be. Joe Genius turns the spotlight on some of the best science videos online, from dry ice bombs to robot musicians, and explain why they work...or more often than not, why they don't. Read More
These Joe Geniuses refuse to settle for a simple solid, liquid, or gas. Watch as the substances in these rockin' videos blur the line between phases, or switch between them in mind-blowing ways. Jonah Ray creates giant mutant bubbles with dry ice and cranks up a part-solid, part-liquid concoction in a subwoofer.
It's time for Joe Genius: Where backyard science goes BIG TIME. Joe Genius highlights home-grown Einsteins who experiment, tinker, and yes, blow stuff up in the name of science. And it's all caught on tape! Join Jonah Ray as he whizzed through these geniuses' most epic failures and thrilling successes -- and of course, the science behind it all.
This solid form of carbon dioxide takes a quick skip and a hop over the liquid stage and morphs directly to gas. But be careful -it gets a little explody under pressure. Watch as Jonah Ray heads over to the Joe Genius science lab and creates his very own dry ice bubble!
