About this listen

You’ve probably heard that singing to your plants helps them grow - but is that actually true? In this episode, we dig into the science behind the myth, from CIA lie detector experiments on houseplants to a MythBusters greenhouse filled with heavy metal. The answer turns out to be more complicated - and more fascinating - than you'd expect. What does sound really do to plants, and what does not happen, despite decades of wishful thinking? We’ll separate the pseudoscience from the peer-reviewed facts. Then we chat with Cliff and Harrison from the Try This At Home MythBusters Rewatch Podcast!

Cliff Bumgardner and Harrison Stewart revisit the iconic Mythbusters series, exploring every wild myth, moment, experiment, and explosion. Join us for a laugh-out-loud rewatch that leaves no question unanswered, featuring special appearances from behind-the-scenes crew and the Mythbusters themselves.
