BRF16: "Fire"

from Barely Researched Facts · host ArtNowThus

This episode is on Fire! (pun :D) What happens when the God of Fire gets indigestion? What happens to fire in space? Can the human body spontaneously combust on its own? Does pyrokinesis exist? Also, is that the correct term for it? And how do dragons breathe fire? We answer all these and other burning questions. Also, as a treat - find out the very literal origins of the phrase 'You Are Fired'. The Apprentice can thank us later. Barely Researched Facts is a facts-based show (barely) brought to you by ArtNowThus, a Mumbai-based experiential arts company. Born out of the infamous lockdown of 2020, the show is a trip down dissection lane – of words. Every episode, the hosts Ragini and Shar choose one word and deep dive into it. Every interesting fact we can find, we research – somewhat casually – and bring to you, pairing it with some good humour and casual chat between two friends. Come take a listen!
