The third episode of the series hosted Feastables owner, MrBeast. He was selected mainly because of his tree plantation campaign, #teamtrees. Through it, Jimmy raised $20 million to plant 20 million trees. The event turned out to be very successful as it grabbed Twitter owner Elon Musk’s attention. 

Apart from that, MrBeast also conducted a campaign, #teamseas for ocean cleanups. Just like the previous one, this event became successful as he raised over $30 million.

The episode aired on 20th October 2020 and had his family’s interview as a bonus. Whoever wishes to watch it can log on to Curiosity Stream and watch it. Do note that the show will only be available after you purchase the yearly subscription.
