Hosted by Jonah Ray.
Welcome the first show that proves how exciting, hilarious, and sometimes dangerous, homegrown science can be.

Pump up the volume and ride the sound wave because this episode is all about the science of sound! A bunch of backyard brainiacs put their musical science skills to the test and create homemade instruments out of veggies, garbage bags, and spare parts. Listen in on other maestros who change their voices by experimenting with the Darth Vader of gases!
It's time for Joe Genius: Where backyard science goes BIG TIME. Joe Genius highlights home-grown Einsteins who experiment, tinker, and yes, blow stuff up in the name of science. And it's all caught on tape! Join Jonah Ray as he whizzed through these geniuses' most epic failures and thrilling successes -- and of course, the science behind it all.
