Rachel Rayner, Science Explainer and confidante, Kirsty Kapp, catch up on the first four episodes of the series. Rachel is thankful she can explain a bit of quantum physics, and Kirsty is excited about recognising Traditional Knowledge, and horrified at the lack of women in arts leadership in Australia’s recent past. They argue about whether an octopus has eight arms or eight legs and celebrate science's role in making trivia great again. Head to each individual episode for more information on each. Note, Rachel made some factual errors in the show: The technology stack has six layers, the seventh being Country. The Story of the Ned Kelly Gang, the world's first feature-length film, opened in 1906 (December, though, so she's close) Credits Producer: Rachel Rayner, Science Explainer Guest: Kirsty Kapp Music: Michelle Cashman Editing: Graham Hunter Made possible through Meta Australia Journalism Fund, administered by the Walkley Foundation, with support from Comedy Victoria.

Patti Talks Too Much Patti Hi. I'm Patti and it's been said - many times - that I talk too much. I'm a teacher, author, nature lover and for ten years I owned a coffeehouse cafe where my faith in the goodness of humans was restored every day. This podcast highlights the awesomeness of humanity - er...outside the warmongers, globalists, tyrants and politicians in general. You know, the rest of us weird, quirky and sometimes hilarious humans. We'll talk woo, probe mysteries and leave you thinking about something more interesting or entertaining or uplifting than your grocery list, or boss or that oil change your car needs. I talk too much because I can't help my Gemini moon and Leo Rising nature. I do a podcast because it's cheaper, funnier and more productive than therapy.
