Welcome to our last episode of Season 1! To celebrate the end of their first season, Nikhil, Mira and Donna tackle the most mind-bendingly muddling topic they physically can: time travel.

They don’t get close - but hey, you’re not here to listen to three astrophysicists anyway, right?

It’s happened once again. They’ve snapped. Running off of the few brain cells they have left after their AP tests, Nikhil, Mira, and Donna rant about everything from gym class to Donna’s (nonexistent) love life.

Welcome to our series, Unplugged! This is the second episode where we go completely off-script: no plans, no preparation. It’s still a trainwreck, but we promise you’ll enjoy it.
