Physics meets chaos, comedy, and emotional intelligence. Revision for the easily distracted. Science Sideways is a surreal revision podcast for GCSE and A-Level students who learn best through metaphors, mischief, and mismatched cushions. Hosted by Jennifer Taylor, a fully qualified teacher, tutor, podcaster, and accidental corridor philosopher. Each episode turns everyday mess into memorable physics lessons. Expect trolley collisions, Kepler’s mum, and the occasional existential jumper.

    Kepler and the Witch

    Johannes Kepler cracked the code of planetary motion but back on Earth, his mother was accused of being a witch. This episode spirals through the weird overlap of astronomy and superstition, where star charts meet spell books and science becomes a survival tool. Was she casting spells—or just living in a world that feared clever women? For GCSE students who like their science with a twist of mystery, and their history with a dash of myth.

    Newton's First Law And The PE Kit That Would Not Move

    Why did the PE kit stay exactly where it was, despite repeated nudges and hallway chaos? Because Newton said so. In this episode, we explore the laws of motion through the lens of everyday school life and the emotional inertia of teenage mornings. Expect surreal metaphors and a sideways slingshot into GCSE physics. Perfect for curious teens (11–18), revision-weary parents, and anyone who’s ever tried to move something that really didn’t want to be moved.
