Why does wood smolder while hydrogen explodes? What makes one fuel safe for cooking and another strong enough to launch rockets? In this explosive debut episode, Kaden breaks down the science of combustion — from the molecules that hold our energy to the chemistry that determines whether a fuel burns clean or blows the roof off. We explore the wild world of hydrocarbons, the subtle power of nuclear pellets, and why lettuce (yes, lettuce) makes a terrible battery. From jet fuel to fryer grease, biofuels to antimatter, this is your all-access pass to the fiery, fascinating world of fuel. Buckle up — things are about to get volatile.
