Have you ever entered the mirror-verse and heard yourself talking back? Well, that’s what happens in today’s episode. 


We take a look (pun intended) at how mirrors work and talk to a scientist to find out what color they are. And in a history of sequins, we learn why, for a long time, rain was a disaster for glittery gowns. Not only can you make today’s Mystery Sound, but you can use it to spiff up your crafts. 


All that, plus a Moment of Um about why words start sounding funny funny funny funny funny when you repeat them.
