"Please Stop! I'm Bored!" The Ig Nobel Prize in all its glory.

Marc Abrahams, the creator of the Ig Nobel Prize, sits down with unPlanned to talk about why it's so important to make people laugh ... and think. It's what led him to create the Ig Nobels in the first place, the award that recognizes people who explore the quirkier angles of science (and art, and literature, and peace making). The ceremonies have everything from operatic melodies to 8 year old girls who tell old people to shut up (in more polite terms, of course), but all the winners have done something worthy of recognition. In fact, one Ig Nobel winner went on to win a Nobel too. Oh yes, and there was that 1 minute wedding.
