Episode Details

Scientific research is usually associated with serious people asking serious questions. 

However, some of the most fascinating discoveries come from investigating things that seem completely ridiculous. 

Every year, a special set of awards honors researchers whose work makes people laugh, then think. 

This year’s winners explored subjects ranging from the bizarre to the downright disgusting. 

Learn more about the strange and surprising research honored by the 2026 Ig Nobel Prizes on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
