Mood Rings were all the rage in the 1970s. Then they went away, and fast. What's your color today?
In this bite-sized episode, Josh and Chuck dive into the wild 1970s phenomenon of mood rings—the colorful jewelry that promised to reveal your emotional state just by looking at your finger. They explore the competing origin stories of who actually invented these things, break down the surprisingly legitimate science behind how thermotropic liquid crystals actually work to change colors based on skin temperature, and explain why mood rings kind of work but not exactly how people thought they did. It's a fun little look at a fad that came and went faster than you can say pet rock, complete with all the tangential jokes and banter you'd expect from the guys.
