Dr Shane, Dr Alicia, Dr Krystal and Danger Mouse are very excited about National Science Week the NASA Curiosity Rover's imminent arrival on Mars, but meantime they talk about the Hendra virus, fossilised tropical vegetation in Antarctica, patient-monitoring tattoos, and whether birds radiate body heat from their beaks. The team chat to Dr Erich Fitzgerald, paleontologist with Museum Victoria, about the discovery of the first Australian fossils of bizarre giant bony-toothed birds in Beaumaris; Danger Mouse brings us up-to-speed on differences in speech capabilities across primate species; and Dr Krystal presents her Science Book Report: My Beautiful Genome by Lone Frank, Sentinel Chickens: What Birds Tell Us About Our Health And Our World by Professor Peter Doherty and The Geek Manifesto by Mark Henderson.

Have you ever wondered how humankind will feed itself over the next century? Thankfully Julian Cribb has, in his capacities as Adjunct Professor in Science at UTS and a fellow of the Australian Academy of Technlogical Sciences and Engineering, and unfortunately the outlook ain't so rosy. We spoke about how our agricultural lands are being slowly transformed, the volatility of food prices, and how commercial and political pressures have lessened our ability to deal with the broader issues. There are some positives, though, including some burgeoning industries that may ultimately change the way we think about food. But what's the first step? A little less apathy perhaps, and more awareness of the long-term trends. We attempted to bridge Melbourne's geographical divide by bringing together two great chefs from different sides of the Yarra: Michael Bacash from Bacash in South Yarra, and Scott Pickett from Estelle Bar and Kitchen in Northcote. We spoke about sourcing quality ingredients from various produce suppliers, Australian seafood vs the world, Michael's nori rolls, getting your kitchen brigade working in "the zone", and exactly what you do and don't get when buying a $42 plate of fish. Scott also mentioned his recent amazing meal at the three starred Mizutani sushi restaurant in Tokyo; yours for just $450 per head (plus airfares, presumably). |

More or less a series of rude remarks and dithery diatribes in which Stew invents the more or less fictitious ABC radio segment Faine’s Funnies; an old expression is slightly readjusted to describe visiting a certain part of the suburb of St Kilda, so Running the Gauntlet becomes Running the Gatwick; and it is alleged that police now calm potentially dangerous mob scenes by yelling the name of a certain TV host into a megaphone to make them sleepy. Also, exclusive revelations of how reality TV will be improved by the slight retitling of one show to MasterShemp, which will now be based around Three Stooges imitations, with an assist from Bruce Springsteen and the Holden Precision Driving Team. Utter baldercack and poppydosh throughout.
CLASSIFICATION WARNING – Contains all the usual rotten words, defamity and profanderny, and groin talk, plus rather more ill-humour and celeb pummelling than usual, such as when it is suggested that Mrs Beckham has got so thin that in emergency situations, people can use her to pick locks. So you probably shouldn’t listen. Again. |
