And welcome to this week's episode of the lab where we take your questions and turn them into experiment.

And this week, we're talking about all different types of disgust.

When you're on the subway, people like you in your face and spiders.

Because today we're actually going to be forcing ourselves to interact with a torrential of which we both find incredibly gross.

We're gonna potentially be drinking our own pee.

And then after that, we're gonna make ourselves a bunch of concoctions that are pretty nasty.

Oh, I like re actually like, we need to open it for people to see you.

Okay, so the actual look of disgust when you actually, you know, have your brows furrowed, your lips raised your nose kind of clenched up is a universal symbol for discussed, and it's actually created through evolution so that we can warn other people that the thing that we're doing could potentially be harmful to ourselves.

Look, a spider if somebody vomits, it's a huge sign that they've not only it's disgusting, first of all.

And it's also a sign that something they've ingested is potentially poisonous or have made them.

You shouldn't be eating that because it's disgusting.

What do we do that I don't want to touch it after coming on?

We just I don't know who's gonna touch her when she gets out.

Obviously, when interacting with translate, we feel disgust.

I feel very hungry right now, but also we feel fear.

And it's really interesting because both disgust and fear, our core emotions that are built with an s to protect us from potential dangers.

So, Mom, if I were tied, she might want to wait.

This spider is an example of sensory discussed When you think of insects or mice or all different sorts of things that kind of gross, too.

So it's often because they could be carriers of disease.

Something like a cockroach isn't necessarily dangerous for you, but it could indicate that your home or the space you're living in is actually unclean.

And so we've had this evolutionary reaction to find their disgusting to protect our own cells.

If you sneeze on yourself or your best friend sneezes on you is not nearly as bad as if a stranger sneeze on you on the subway.

And it's kind of like that I don't see trench was often.

You don't know the spider if we knew her personally.

Molly, I think they call it Isn't Oh lifting it?

So we wanted to test some things that we perceive as disgusting, like a toilet and a urinal, and then put them side by side with the things we use on a regular basis, like our phones and the keyboards on our laptops to see which is actually more disgusting.

We then took the swab samples from each location to an egg are Petri dish and let the cultures grow.

So the cleanest and leased back to your grown was in the toilet, which is kind of the journal.

And the most disgusting place was the keyboard.

That's all kind of surprising considering these two things are the things we touch every single day basically, and they're the most disgusting.

And so to do that, we have to now go pee pee at Maggie's.

So it's pretty disgusting to drink her own pee like this.

And what we're gonna test is we're actually gonna be filtering RP using this lifesaver filter and see if after filter and knowing that all we're really drinking is water and salt, are we still gonna be grossed out by the fact that we have poured RP into this?

What's really interesting about this is relates to something called interpersonal discussed, which is that I'm gonna find it much easier to drink my own p d.

Even though it's being cleaned equally as yours, then yours.

I mean, like, I don't really want a drink.

But But as CNN's, it's like someone was, like, sturdy, like I'm like you.

It's all because we need to be able to go after.

And I'm just gonna go have you gotta do it fast.

Like that is the thought of you Smells like bran flakes.

Awfully clear, but it is much more clear now.

I don't know what moisture on my hands is being one, isn't he?

Just look clear when you first are yours is clear.

No, but I think it's because you're this completely clear.

Not like I'm just Oh, 000 Actually, here.

That's no that I'm kind of it doesn't taste like my cereal.
