The Discovery Science Channel has brought back the Mythbusters series, but with a twist. Host Adam Savage is now joined by six of the brightest and most talented youths in America, and two of them are from our very own New Orleans area.  Tune in to see Rachel Pizzalato of Metairie and Jesse Lawless of Slidell—both touting impressive resumes as award-winning builders and inventors—as they cleverly devise and execute experiments to debunk some of the wildest widely held beliefs today, such as the lifesaving ability of duct tape and the explosive capacity of air freshener.  Mythbusters, Jr. airs on Wednesdays at 9 p.m.
