Episode 292. Formula 1 racing begins a new season this spring, and we have Brad Pitt's F1 movie this summer, so it's time for Kyle to explain what the sport actually is! With a beautifully constructed slideshow, we give a primer to newbies about how the race works, fun facts about each driver, the evolution of the teams, and answers to Melissa's questions like "do they play jock jams at the races?" and "are there mascot costumes?" We also briefly discuss new films in theaters this month and what's on YouTube's own YouTube channel.
