theblerdgurl Podcast with Karama Horne

Ever wonder if the science and tech that you see in comic book movies could actually happen in real life? Could someone really create a new element in their living room like Tony Stark did in Iron Man 2? What real-life poisonous plant, might have actually killed King Joffrey in Game of Thrones? What polymer might Hulk’s pants be made out of? Could Spider Man’s webs be replicated in a real lab?  Must me walk around with two decaying corpses to ward off a horde of zombies? Well, these are some of the questions I got to ask analytical chemist Dr. Raychelle Burks in my interview with her. This interview was so much fun! There was lot’s of giggling mixed in with a load of science. Dr. Burk is not to be missed! You can also check her out on the Science Channel’s awesome show Outrageous Acts of Science.
