Summary
What REALLY cancelled Pumpkin Chunkin? What actually went down behind the scenes of MythBusters: The Search? And can Chernobyl still kill you if you visit? Kari and Tory sit down with Kyle Hill - science communicator, nuclear expert, and former MythBusters: The Search host - to spill the tea on the accident that ended Pumpkin Chunkin forever, the chaos nobody saw on The Search, and why Kyle keeps going back to one of the most radioactive places on Earth.
