    Secondary School Psychology

    It’s a first for the pod this week as we have a guest! We welcome the psychology queen herself Caitlin K to the pod. Caitlin is a secondary school psychology and English teacher, who happens to be Jono’s wife and Bec's best friend. We learn about sleep facts, eyewitness testimony and other fun topics. Bout time someone on the pod knew what they were talking about! Enjoy!

    Robbed: women who didn’t get their credit

    This week's topic is one that's close to most womens hearts: men taking credit for your work. We look at artists, inventors and scientists who you might not have heard of because some bloke made a whole song and dance about themselves instead.

    Pro Wrestling

    It’s still real to us! This week Jono shares his vast (and probably useless) knowledge of the world of Pro Wrestling. We talk origins, mega stars, insider terms and we bond over our love of Jeff Hardy & John Cena. An ep for all ages.

    Aussie Inventions

    In another episode brought to you by “Rebecca Barely Explains Basic Concepts”, we dive into Australian history to discover our contributions to the global inventing community (we imagine that that community exists and it’s some cool secret club!).

    Crime and Punishment

    We dive into the world of crime & punishment on this weeks ep. It got a little serious at points, but you know crime is serious guys! We discuss the most dangerous & safest countries in the world, weird laws from around the globe and we discuss some “what the heck” worth sentences that have been handed down to some crims. And to top it all off, we talk about capitol punishment; oh boy its a big one!

    Q & A #2

    You asked and we attempted to coherently answer your questions on this weeks episode! QnA is back and Jono & Bec sifted through their encyclopaedia sized brains this week to answer life’s big questions. What is fog? Why can’t cows walk backwards? Why do dolphins jump out of the water? And so many more! Give it a listen! You might learn a thing or two, or you’ll jump on Google straight after to see if we’re somewhat accurate!
