Blow The Mind: The Science of Gremlins and Mogwai
by Robert Lamb | December 19, 2012
Mogwai and Gremlins might SEEM the most unrealistic little monsters ever to crawl out of the 1980s, but nothing could be further from the truth.
In this episode of Stuff to Blow Your Mind, Robert and Julie dissect Gremlin/mogwai biology and show you how all that melting and metamorphosing matches up with the rest of the animal kingdom.
If you’re an Eighties baby like me, you already know The Rules. No, I don’t mean those silly rules about dating. I’m talking about the rules for the proper care of a Mogwai. Wait … what?
