• It's Simple Math?
    Jul 19 2023
    What's good everyone? It's been a long while since my last episode, a very long while...On this episode of The Black Science Guy, we're going to be discussing the dreaded subject of mathematics. I hope I didn't just give you an anxiety attack! Yes, if science is the club, math is the bouncer at the door. But don't fret, it's gonna be on chill. We first talk math history and origins, my first ever interview on the show with math professor Luis Vingochea and finally learn about scientists who weren't the best at math. I ain't never scared of math! Well maybe a little, but we'll work it out!blackscienceguypodcast@gmail.comInstagram: Blackscienceguy3.14Music composed by Jovan Munoz-MurrietaInstagram: JovanandonlyOxfordlearnersdictionaries.com"What is mathematics?" livescience.comBritannica.com/science/mathematics/Ancient-mathematics-sourcesinterestingengineering.com/science/who-exactly-invented-mathSmithsonianmag.com/air-space-magazine/science-aliens-part-v-how-would-they-communicate-180978677/mentalfloss.com/article/69251/6-famous-scientists-and-inventors-who-struggled-math

  • Moldy, Lowdown Gritty and Slimy
    Jun 2 2022

    It feels like I'm back again for the first time! It's been a minute, but the Black Science Guy is back droppin' that knowledge. On this episode, it's slime time. We discuss a few of the different types of slimes out there. Then in Strange Science Facts, just let your soul glow. Then I answer a question about permanent markers and how they're made. Finally, it's time to serve up some of that Fresh News off the Webs. If you're new welcome and if you're not, welcome back!

    Jan 12 2022

    Happy New Year! Starting the year right with a new episode. Hope you're a fan of the beetles. No not those beetles, we're speaking of the insect variety. We got Bombardier beetles, Hercules beetles, Bark beetles! Then in Strange Science Facts, the body is a wonderland. Like I wonder why it do what it do. Next, Dear Black Science Guy ponders pooping a sneeze or sneezing a poop? In a new segment "Fresh Science off The Webs", we discuss the launching of the James Webb Space Telescope and get a blast from the past in a 70 million year old dinosaur egg. Let's do this!

  • Planetary! Intergalactic!
    Dec 21 2021

    Back again with another science banger! On this episode we explore the things that loom in the darkness of space with some celestial phenomenon. Then in Strange Science Facts, this one is not for the weak of stomach, trust me. Then Dear Black Science Guy has a zoology question about cheetahs. Space is the place no matter who you are, you're made out of flesh but descended from stars.

  • Welcome to The Black Science Guy Podcast!
    Oct 21 2021

    What is good science people! Welcome to the Black Science Guy Podcast! I'm really excited that you're here. This is an introductory episode of the podcast episode, an episode zero of sorts. I'm going to talk just a little bit about me and my love of science. I explain why I got into science, a bit of my origin story and my hopes for the future. Come and hang out for awhile with me as we embark on this journey called science! It's poetry in motion!
