Engineer, inventor, pilot, and YouTuber Xyla Foxlin joins Kari Byron and Tory Belleci to talk about building a real airplane from scratch, launching rockets, and testing wild engineering ideas that feel straight out of MythBusters. Along the way, Kari and Tori dig into some of their wildest MythBusters memories - including the episode where they used a 747 to flip a bus, the Fire Dragons rocket myth that had all three of them losing their minds on camera, and the giant pumpkin experiment that may or may not have made it past sprouts.
