Revision3 Summary
Those special power bands you see in latenight infomercials and on the wrists of sports stars everywhere? Well, we can't say for sure that they don't work. Mostly because we don't enjoy getting sued. But we have some fake placebo bands that we put through some tests, and you know what we found? They work just as well as the real deal. Dan 3.0's Dan Brown joins us on this expedition of science, my6stery, and drunk people falling down.
