Brain stimulation and the octagonal box

Back to this topic

Brain stimulation and the octagonal box · Proposed air date:

A study about electrical brain stimulation and mathematical performance becomes a long piece of brotherly improvisation. Dr. Dave and Evil Steve question what the experiment measured, joke about counting on fingers and toes and invent an octagonal box that supposedly turns arithmetic into a physical activity, preserving the spontaneous humor of the live show.
