  I love how Steph is the Lawful Neutral to Matts Chaotic Neutral. She's the balance when he goes too deep into the LORE 😂

  I had a microbiology professor who had our lab do almost this exact experiment, but with hand washing. We were all shook when we saw the petri dishes. She said that soap brings our natural flora to the surface of our pores and thats why the petri dishes grew so many more microbes. It’d be interesting if you could test the colonies to see what’s actually growing.

  The shorts vs dress vs jeans really shows the importance of having larger sample sizes in testing

  I've done six years as a microbiologist with expertise in clean rooms and environmental monitoring. The most likely difference in his leg was that it may just have been sweatier wet swabs pick up more stuff, he also may have more dead skin on top for the control. In terms of the experiment you didn't control the water or dryness of the legs. Drying is actually a very big part of washing,

  It's important to consider that it's dangerous to overkill the bacteria on our skin, since we need them

  Stephanie should voice all future soap episodes, this can be a decently long series too

  Moisture is the main difference.  A Dry swab on dry legs doesn't allow much to transfer to a dish medium, while MatPat peeled up his sweaty jeans for the control sample.  A wet swab provides a nice even coat.

  If you do an episode comparing soaps, please make sure to also test the difference between using just your hands vs. a wash cloth vs. a lufa.

  im just gonna ignore the results for a moment and give Stephanie the appreciation she deserves. I loved hearing her narrate this episode, and she definitely deserves more recognition and appreciation from everyone, I was literally thinking about this yesterday and i feel like this video was a great opportunity for me to express my appreciation and love for her contribution to the channels.
