Join Ben Crisp, Tom Crisp, and Brendan Williams as they revisit The Curiosity Show, a classic South Australian science TV series from the 70s. Watching clips of Deane Hutton and Rob Morrison’s experiments sparks laid-back, funny conversations about science, pop culture, history, and whatever else comes up. It’s light-hearted, curious, and a bit unpredictable.

  1. Deane on Hey Hey It's Saturday

    04/11/2025

    Deane on Hey Hey It's Saturday

    It's a Brendan and Ben duo episode with an electric deep dive into Dick Smith Electronics, MacGyver's take on car phones, and a glimpse at the magical and terrifying time capsule of Hey Hey It's Saturday clips on YouTube.

  2. Exploring Your World

    28/10/2025

    Exploring Your World

    The trio reunites to dissect (not literally) The Mighty Ducks, deconstruct (not literally) modern advertising, and demonstrate (literally) why callbacks don't work if you didn't record the thing being called back to. Oh, and there's a bit of The Curiosity Show in there too!

  3. Mexican Jumping Beans

    13/10/2025

    Mexican Jumping Beans

    It's a Pod Full of Beans with Brendan and Ben, but not Tom, because his name does not share enough letters with the multifaceted legume. We talk jumping beans (both real and matchbox-tumbled foil), breaking bags of Bag-Of-Beans branded bean bag beans, a book full of beans by Richard Fowler, and zippers. And MacGuyver.

  4. The Mystery of the Stolen Sheep

    01/10/2025

    The Mystery of the Stolen Sheep

    It finally happened, a Ben solo episode (not referring to Kylo Ren's given name, but maybe that'll be good for the algorithm?). Alone on a deserted highway at night outside of Litchfield in the Top End of Australia, experience the fairly low-fi ramblings of a parent whose baby has finally fallen asleep and is left to ponder the stars, the deep cuts of Harrison Ford's filmography, and a peculiar coffee table in the Mystery of the Stolen Sheep clip from The Curiosity Show.

  5. Egg In A Bottle

    17/09/2025

    Egg In A Bottle

    We're going into the musical mind of Brendan this week as he and Ben celebrate the taste and fashion of a couple of budding dorks. If Tom was there it would be much trendier. And Deane shows us how to get a boiled egg into an old-fashioned milk bottle, and some talk of Full House for good measure.

    1h 23m
  6. Spin Dryer and The Book

    01/09/2025

    Spin Dryer and The Book

    The Prodigal Dubs is back with Tom and Ben to unsheathe a vintage copy of the titular book, as well as reminisce over top-loader washer-dryer combos, the truth behind centrifugal force, and of course more thoughts about The Muppet Christmas Carol.

    1h 40m
  7. Mona Lisa Smile

    26/08/2025

    Mona Lisa Smile

    It's the Crisp brothers, Ben and Tom, sans the amazing Brendan and his amazing microphones, debating whether or not Mona Lisa is smiling, what happens when someone breaks the internet for real, and quantum computers. Oh and Muppets.

    1h 28m
  8. Expansion and Contraction

    19/08/2025

    Expansion and Contraction

    We're back! After Tom's travels to Japan and the U.S.A., the Mind Stretchers reunite to discover the joys of Fuji Rock Festival '25 and capsule hotels, debate which part of the dishwasher you'd prefer to get washed in, and learn how metal and rubber reacts to heat.
