WASHINGTON—“I noticed a long time ago whenever my mom would lose weight, my dad would gain weight, and when my dad lost weight, my mom gained weight,” science comedian Brian Malow told The Epoch Times.
“It was like the conservation of mass within our family, and I had a theory that you never actually lose weight; you just give it to somebody else; fat can neither be created nor destroyed.”
Malow performed on Wilson Plaza on Saturday, Oct. 23, during the USA Science & Engineering Festival, entertaining participants of the Grand Finale Expo.
Malow has been a comedian for about 20 years. As he described it, he is not a scientist, but a “science enthusiast.”
“When I started my stand-up comedy, it always had a little science flavor in it,” Malow said. “It’s just gotten more and more so, and now I’ve decided to just focus on that.” (sciencecomedian.com)
Malow started participating in the festival since it was found in San Diego two years ago. He said he believes comedy can inspire children to learn about science and engineering “very well.”
