Cryotherapy with TheCryoBar

Cryotherapy with TheCryoBar

Author: Drew & Liv December 7, 2020 Duration: 31:03
Who is crazy enough to stand in -200°F chambers, wearing nothing but socks and underwear? Unsurprisingly, Science in Society co-hosts, Drew & Liv, are! Why would anyone do that voluntarily? Turns out, there is a reason... and a good one at that. In this weeks episode, Drew & Liv sit down with Sara & Andrew of TheCryoBar to learn about the history and benefits of cryotherapy and discuss their experiences in the ice-cold chamber. They’ll also cover some cryotherapy basics and take a...

Curious about the everyday mysteries that science hasn't quite solved yet? That's the territory explored in Science in Society, a conversation hosted by Drew and Liv. You might recognize them as the duo who started as lab partners and ended up as a couple, bringing that same blend of teamwork and genuine curiosity to every episode. They don't just talk at you about complex topics; they bring in researchers and specialists from across the globe to help unpack questions that live at the intersection of lab work and real life. So, while the categories might list fitness and health, a typical discussion could easily jump from the biomechanics of a perfect push-up to the neuroscience behind a caffeine buzz, or from the latest theories on human longevity to the very real engineering hurdles of a Mars mission. The aim is to make the vast world of scientific inquiry feel accessible and, frankly, entertaining. Tuning into this podcast feels less like a lecture and more like eavesdropping on a fascinating conversation between friends who are excellent at finding experts. You'll hear clear explanations, a few laughs, and hopefully walk away with a new understanding of how science quietly shapes your daily decisions and your biggest dreams. It’s for anyone who’s ever wondered about the ‘how’ and ‘why’ behind the headlines, served with a dose of relatable banter.
