This week Matt taps into his deep seeded (not sorry) personal experience as a plant professional, enthusiast, and fact knower. The two talk through how seeds are made, what were those weird tubes Ms. Frizzle showed us, and talk GMO. What do you know about round up ready soy beans? If you said nothing, that's about to change in this week's episode.

Ms. Frizzle takes the class inside Dorothy Ann’s book for a baseball game on a frictionless field, and chaos follows. Ralphie is dreaming big, the class is slipping sideways, and Sarah and Matt are trying their best to understand physics without becoming math people.

In this episode, we talk friction, gravity, momentum, vectors, energy transfer, curveballs, ice skating, invisible forces, and why the stories we tell ourselves might be one of the most powerful forces of all. Along the way, we ask what friction would look like up close, where energy goes when motion stops, and whether being a little delusional is actually necessary for getting through life.

Plus: Matt bravely confronts vectors!

This week, The Magic School Bus takes a trip into the world of chemistry. While the episode starts with baking, Sarah and Matt quickly move beyond the kitchen to explore the fundamental ideas that underpin all of chemistry.

What exactly is matter? How do atoms combine to form molecules? What is the difference between physical changes and chemical reactions and why do why do they happen at all?

Whether you loved chemistry class like Matt or spent it staring blankly at the periodic table like Sarah, this episode offers an accessible introduction to Chemistry and a little chat at the end about our thoughts on science education in schools.
