In this episode of Art and Science Punks Kate and Rob discuss ways we prepare to learn new things, growth mindset, kids going back to school and how Kate thinks the sun&#39;s corona is inherently funny.

Kate and Rob also share an art pick and a science pick this week: one is about slime; the other about the sun&#39;s corona.
