TRC #262: Fukushima Effects + Stress and Grey Hair + Almond Joy’s Got Nuts

Episode 262 of the Reality Check is quite the humdinger. Adam starts off the show by revisiting the effects of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster and looking into whether it has caused some fruits to mutate into monster fruits. Next Darren looks into whether stress causes one’s hair to go gray. Pat closes out the show by answering the age old question of whether it’s true that Almond Joy’s got nuts and Mounds don’t.
