46: Fashion - Polkas, Dots and Penguins
Hi Fancy Folks!
The weather is warming up and you know what that means: itsy, bitsy, teeny, weeny, yellow polka dot bikinis. Polka dots are a quintessential summer print. But how did they come about, why do we like them so much and are we the only animals drawn to this bold and graphic print?
Join your favorite curious scientist as we explore the science behind polka dots. We'll learn about how penguins use dots to identify their mates, how the cosmetic industry is taking advantage of new carbon nanodots and even take a trip down memory lane to when I was working in the field. So ditch the lab coat, grab a bold print and come and learn with us.

44: Fashion - Stripes and Dr. Lex Meets Her Scientific Match
Hi Fancy Folks!
We're tackling a classic pattern this episode. It's all about stripes! Stripes have meant different things throughout the ages. Now, they symbolize anything from classic, nautical themes to something that hints of rebellion.
In this episode, we learn about why zebras have stripes, what "motion dazzle" is and Dr. Lex meets her match when trying to decipher a paper on charge stripes in graphene. Fortunately, a great explanatory article comes to the rescue.

I couldn't let a fashion season go by without an episode about my absolute print, leopard print. We released this episode in Season 1 and it was so much fun to learn more about leopards and their spots that we're re-releasing it.
Join me as I explore the science behind leopards, their spots and why the print has been a mainstay of fashion.
