Ask Dr. Science

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ask Dr. Science is a daily humorous radio sketch produced by the comedy troupe Duck's Breath Mystery Theatre. It is broadcast on many public radio stations, using a format that mixes elements of a commercial bumper and a public service announcement. A concerned citizen asks a question, which is answered by an expert, "Dr. Science". Before the question and answer are given, the introduction states that "Remember — he knows more than you do", to which "Dr. Science" replies "That's right!" After the question and "answer", the sketch always concludes with the message that he is "not a real doctor"; Dr. Science, however, frequently quips "I have a Masters Degree... in science!"

The program features two Duck's Breath members: Dan Coffey as Dr. Science and Merle Kessler as his assistant/announcer Rodney.
