Welcome to "Is it a Good Idea to Microwave This?" I'm your host, Jory Caron.
You may be wondering, "There's nothing on the table! What are you going to microwave today? I'm at a loss! I don't know! Did Jory forget?!"
No, I didn't forget. What we're going to actually microwave are two items. These are the most requested items in our poll from last week: a spray paint can and a CO2 canister.
Incidentally, this is what we're gonna be microwaving today. It's donated by Nick V... I have no idea how to pronounce his last name!
Jory: Is it a good idea to microwave this?
Let's find out! Here at the Jory Caron Laboratory, we don't have any shielding anymore...
Jon: Hey, Riley!
Riley: What's goin' on?
Jon: How's it goin'?
I've got the sidekick cam today!
Jon: I can see that!
The sidekick cam!
You know what else I've got? Myself on a T-shirt, that's right!
Jon: Wow!
Yeah, yeah, look it- ooh! It can come back and forth and pose!
*hissing gas sound*
Jon: Alright, so where are we goin', Jory?
Jory: We're going BEYOND the laboratory!
Riley: Which isn't set up today!
Which is a little bit more further. This episode? Beyond your wildest dreams!
In case we hadn't made it clear already, we actually do kind of film this outside. Here is the new laboratory.
Jon: Wow! Look! It's my backyard!
Jory: We hide behind this giant stack of wood. It's flammable- it doesn't protect anything!
Riley: It makes matters worse!
Jory: Over there, we have Whoopi, our faithful Panasonic microwave. It came in in season five, and it's probably not gonna make it to season six- we'll make sure of that!
There's no ventilation, but, you know, Earth is our ventilation system! (breathes in deeply)
Jon: Oh, it's cold in January!
Jory: Let's open this girl up, put this little pot in there.
Jon: Oh, sweet! It's a pot!
Jory: Just so this is elevated. There we go! Look at that! Isn't that beautiful? It's like it was meant to be!
Jon: Nice work, Jory, nice work!
Jory: Yeah, I know, I try... And also another safety feature- these zip ties.
Jon: Wait- ANOTHER? You mean, our FIRST safety feature!
Jory: Yeah, I know...
Jon: Wow! What's that for, Jory?
Jory: It's so we don't die! Oh, I can't even open the door right now! This is beautiful! Okay, so how long should I put her in there for? I'm gonna go ahead and say 30 minutes.
Jory: Guys, it's gonna be done- it's gonna be done!
Jory: Okay, now all there's left to do is to retreat!
Jon: Is it going?
Jory: It's goin'!
Jon: It's goin'! Alright!
Jory: Notice how I put my ear right next to it!
Jon's dad: Just heating it up might not set it off.
Jory: I'm hiding right behind my sidekick, or, in this episode, meat shield! Meet Meat Shield! Meat Shield Riley!
Riley: Yeah! I think it's smoking a little bit.
Jon: Do you smell that?
Jory: Yeah, the vent is just pushing [beep] out. This looks like every other microwave show out there!
Jon: Uh-oh!
Jory: Did it do something? Can you hear it hissing right now?
Jon: I can kind of hear it hissing!
Jory: I always miss it! Why is that?!
Riley: it just sparked a little bit.
Jon: So, I can hear it releasing.
I thought it was gonna, like, ping-pang-pang! Ping-pang-ping!
Riley: Like in "Mythbusters."
Jon: It's not Chinese!
Yeah, by the way, we don't have a power switch to turn it off right now, so it's still going! So, I'm gonna go over there and turn it off.
Jon: Alright, I'm comin' in after you, Jory.
Jory: Oh, jeez! It looks like part of the pottery is red-hot!
Riley: Oh, [beep]!
Jory: (to Jon) Do you have your knife?
Jon: (to Riley) Go get the knife, go get the knife! It's on the stairs!
Jory: Dude, that's red-hot!
Jon: Like the Chili Peppers?
Jory: Dude, there's light coming from the inside of the pot thing!
Riley: Look! I'm running with a knife!
Jon: Don't stab me with it!
Riley: Safety is our number-one concern!
Jon: Alright, now, we have a knife.
Jory: Okay, opening this bad girl... Come on... Oh, yeah! You like that?
Jon: Alright, twist-ties are off. Open her up!
Riley: Easy...
Jory: Oh, my God!
Jon: [Beep]! The CO2 canister did that to the pot?! Wow!
Jon: You wasted it, dude!
Jory: That melted a ceramic pot! That MELTED a ceramic pot! It sounds like it's cracking. It could explode, actually...
Jon: What could?
Jory: The ceramic.
Jon: Wait- open it back up! We need to see it happen!
Jory: Haven't you ever seen when, like, metal goes from, like, red-hot to water? It, like, explodes!
Jon: Yeah, it looks like it might! Let's watch it happen!
Riley: Back up!
Jon: Open the door all the way! Let it happen! Just let it happen! If the pot's gonna explode, we should get it on film! That's the way we do things!
Jon: Alright, we're gonna disarm the pot by throwing it into the snow!
Jon: Just grab it, just grab it! Don't be a ***!
Jory: Didn't you see how red-hot it was?! The STONE was red-hot!
Riley: It's not gonna explode anymore, is it?
Jon and Riley: Wow!
Jory: Look how hot that is!
Jon: That is red, red-hot! The CO2 canister released all of its juices into that pot and totally [beep]in' melted a hole in the side of it!
Jon: And that's the CO2 canister. This is our victim's tray- just a pile of snow! And they're buried!
Jory: I'm guessing it just blew away the side part, and then, it just slowly hissed out. It might have actually done something, but I really couldn't see in there.
Jory: I'm guessing these marks possibly mean "Hey-I-did-something," but I'm not really sure...
Jory: So, you may still be wondering, is it a good idea to microwave a CO2 canister?
Riley: I thought it was boring!
Jory: Yeah, it was kinda boring to watch, and the cool thing that happened? Really, I don't even know if it had anything to do with the CO2 canister!
So, I'm gonna go ahead and say it's NOT a good idea to microwave a CO2 canister, 'cause it was kinda just boring! And yeah, that's about it!
Riley: It melts snow, though! If you wanna get rid of snow easily...
Jory: Yeah, look at that! It already evaporated all of that snow that I threw on it!
Jon: Holy [beep]!
Riley: Yup! Still boring!
So, that's it for "Is it a Good Idea to Microwave This?" I'm your host, Jory Caron.

Jory: I'm Jory. My shirt doesn't have my face on it, because that's weird!
