The Explanatarium

The Brian Lehrer Show | Aug 15, 2013

It's time for another installment in our open-phones series "The Explanatarium" -- where you get one minute to explain something to your fellow WNYC listeners. Do you just "get" something most other people find complicated? Have you done the research and figured things out? If you think you can explain something complicated or often misunderstood - in 60 seconds or less - call in.

In previous installments (listen below) listeners have explained the difference between incandescent and halogen light bulbs; why altruism has an evolutionary purpose; and the origin of the phrase "break a leg."

If you can explain something - anything - clearly and simply, call 212-433-9692 or post below. No heavy opinion, no political rants, just compelling information and succinct clarification.
