  • "Resurrect The Funk" sounds like an awesome name for a massive 70's band comeback album.
  • A lot of people seem to be unaware that there is such a thing as good cholesterol. There are good fats and bad, and our bodies need good fats to function. Things like nuts and avocados have healthy fats, whereas something like a pizza has bad fats. Also, there is a myth that mice hate peppermint and so you should spray it around to deter them. When I had mice (gotta love old houses!) they ate a box of after dinner mints...lol

    I'm from Villa Rica, GA. Also, George Lucas met Harrison Ford while he was installing a door at Francis Ford Coppola's house. That was how Ford was cast in American Graffiti since Lucas liked his presence when they met. He then asked Ford to run lines with the other actors for Star Wars. Eventually, he realized that Ford got the character of Han Solo better than the actual hopefuls, so he offered Ford the role. So, that one was actually true... from a certain point of view. pushes up nerd glasses

    7:58 rodents are also fond of peanut butter. use that in your traps. A. it's easier for them to smell it, so they come from far away, b. it's hard for them to get it off the trap and they will keep eating it until they set off the trap. Additionally, use a 'bucket mouse trap'. it's MUCH more effective than the old 'snap' traps. the 'rolling pin' ones work better than the 'flip' ones....

    To try to avoid developing kidney stones, you really need to drink lots of water, but not necessarily 8 glasses of water per day. Putting lemon or lime juices in the drinking water helps.
  • @mbourque
    3:26 you 'should' use oil (preferable extra virgin olive oil or avacoda oil) in the pot when you go to boil the pasta. this helps prevent 'over boiling' and having a mess on the stove. the oil prevents bubbles from keeping cohesion and thus reduce the amount 'bubbling' up in the pot. (similar principle of having a wooden spoon across the pot top). BUT after that, there is no need for oil in pasta. Tip: if you are making a tomato sauce with the pasta. keep 1 cup (16 oz.) of 'pasta' water after the pasta is cooked and before you drain the pasta and put that into the thick tomato sauce (just don't make it too watery or you'll be there forever waiting for it to boil down again).

    Hello from the Yellowstone blast zone! I live in Missoula, Montana, 280-ish miles from Yellowstone and 135-ish miles from Glacier National Park.
  • @mbourque
    the active ingredient in skunk spray is sulfuric acid. so to get rid of it, you should use a base like Sodium bicarbonate to neutralize it. Baking soda... rub in everywhere you got sprayed and if any got in your eyes, FLUSH, FLUSH, FLUSH.. tomato sauce doesn't work because most tomato sauces are acidic which does nothing to counteract the sulfuric acid...
  • I'm from Michigan. Lots of trees unpredictable weather, and outdoor activities. Love this channel. Binges watched past videos. Thanks Mike, for entertainment, and learned a lot.
  • I was already a subscriber with ‘All’ notifications turned on. I am from Raceland, KY, but I currently live in the DC area. I seriously love your videos! 💜
  • I love these videos
Mike is a trip and I love crazy facts like this. I have learned a lot from these videos. From this one my favorite wrong fact is the one about dairy making your cold worse. I have gotten into so many arguments with my sister-in-law about this because she claims that she absolutely knows the truth and that milk is bad for you. I don’t care if I have a cold or I don’t have a cold if I want a big glass of milk, I’m having a big glass of milk. đŸ„›

    However, garlic does repel vampires. And Latvian Orthodox sisters.
