This episode of the man show features the guys trying to build solar robots out of a kit made for 8 years and up. Seems like a simple task for 2 guys way up from 8 years old.
But the task proves to be overwhelming for both of the hosts and in fact even with a degree in electrical engineering, Mr Dog Poop struggles to understand the basic component parts.
Of course that degree was back when TV's were made with vacuum tubes and houses were built with fuses and not circuit breakers. So he is a bit dated to understand modern technology.
And we can't forget about Jeff Macolino, his focus was all out on trying to assemble something that at least looked like a robot after Mr Dog Poop embarrassed him on the P51 broadcast when Jeff failed to complete the project.
But all was not lost on this episode, we got some laughs, learned some science and talked about the importance of STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) in the development of children's minds. How TIKTOK is turning our kids into low esteem chickens that are ready to commit suicide because they don't wear the latest fashion or can't be as pretty as someone else.
The guys are promoting education and learning this week and hope their voices carry across the country and wake up parents that are not seeing the trends of their own kids.
If we want to save the country from failure, we need to start by educating the future minds with as much information as possible, the best understanding of problem solving and the tools they need to make their own decisions as adults.
STEM week on The Man Show Live will be a success if a few parents re-evaluate their children's education and make sure they are on the right track.
Young minds are so impressionable and what they see and lean with be with them for a life time.
Do you want their lifetime memories to be about sitting in their room playing video games and watching half naked girls on twitch? Or something more positive, like learning experiences they will benefit from on a daily basis?
Wednesdays news is dominated by discussions about Jenna Ortega who is front and center the most talked about celebrity in the world today. The guys talk about her career, her evolution as an actress and show video clips of her work over the years. The show was watched by a record number of viewers including Lorne Michaels who immediately contacted Jenna to host Saturday Night Live next week. So everyone can see Jenna Ortega on SNL thanks to the publicity she garnered from Mr Dog Poop on The Man Show Live. The guys compare Christina Ricci's career and Jenna Ortega's career since they both played Wednesday Addams although at very different times in their careers. Jenna is a seasoned 20 year old actress with more than a decade of acting experience while Christina was just 10 years old and only starting her career. The fact is, both girls killed ...read more
Mountain House Adventure Meals - A LIVE prep & taste test of 4 freeze dried survival mealsIn this episode of the man show, we try some of the Mountain House Adventure meals for texture, quality and taste. What that, the guys had mixed opinions about the meals and Mr Dog Poop did not think the bacon and eggs was edible while Jeff sucked down the entire feed bad. These feed bags are very convenient for travel since the are dry, very light and last for decades in any storage condition. Of course, you still need access to clean water which might be problematic in a survival situation. But for camping, hiking or travel they are a great option at around $10-$15 per meal. The amount of food in each was surprising and likely enough to feed 2 people. The beef stew had almost no beef and was relatively tasteless. ...read more
$17 Personal Frying Pan - Is it big enough for a man size meal? Personal Frying Pan - Is it big enough for a REAL MAN? Our first impression was that it was small. But that may be the best part, portable, does not take up much space and in the end, it did cook a man size portion. One man at least. The cons were, too shallow, no temperature control and that the handle needed to be assembled from 3 parts which is something some men wont be able to do. Mr Dog Poop cooks sausage chili made with Italian sausage, onions, peppers, garlic, tomatoes and kidney beans. It is a struggle to get all the ingredients into the shallow pan but in the end, keeping in a heaping pile did work. Once that finished, he attempted a Philly cheese steak with mushrooms and Swiss cheese. Jeff cooks ...read more
Soldering Motherboards for Kids OK, they are not really motherboards, they are just small printed circuit boards with simple projects for kids as part of our STEM week projects. These projects are typically under $10 and vary in scope and complexity. We tried a clock and a musical board. The first word I have to describe these is SMALL! Tiny parts, hard to read and difficult to understand, but isn't that the point? To challenge young minds with projects that make them think. Projects that build on deductive reasoning and get them off their phones for a few minutes a day. These simple projects and a less than $10 soldering iron will keep kids busy for hours. It is a good entry project into electrical engineering, helping kids understand basic components and how the boards are assembled. At one time back in the 70's you could walk into any ...read more
