The guys discuss one of the biggest mysteries in science, how being autistic can actually help you in certain ways, and how teachers handled kids with special needs in the 90s.

The guys revisit a not so controversial scientific "controversy", the surprisingly early spread of chocolate, and who should or shouldn't play football.
