Episode Description from the Publisher

If you were on a merry-go-round that was spinning super fast, you’d feel it. But the Earth is always spinning and we don’t feel a thing. Why is that? Join Molly and Reean as they explore the science of spin. Plus we find out how liquid sloshing around in our ears can make us feel dizzy. And speaking of ears, get yours ready for an all new Mystery Sound. Want to support the show? Join ⁠⁠⁠Smarty Pass⁠⁠⁠ to listen to ad-free episodes or donate! Want to see Brains On live?!?
