Dave is trying to change our perception of everyday things again. Last season, it was menus and this time it’s queueing! Did you know there’s a very precise science behind waiting in line? Well, in well-designed queuing, anyway.

Brett Little, the People Movement Lead for Arup in the UK will tell us all about the Disney Queue, bottom-filling pints and why there is sometimes karaoke after rugby games. Also, what do Carly Rae Jepsen, the French croquet team and Vinny Jones have in common? You’ll find out when you hit play!

This one is going to sound odd, but that’s because it is.

Economist, author and broadcaster David McWilliams pops into Why Would You Tell Me That? towers and explains the bizarre story of why Hitler wanted to drop money from planes all over the UK. Find out just how far the plan got and what happened to the notes produced.

And to whet your money appetite, the lads look at some of some other financial shenanigans in part 1. Fancy buying a US state for $7 million, anyone?

All the simple questions are asked on this podcast, week in, week out. Ketchup or brown sauce? Beef or salmon? Who owns the Moon?

Yep. Standard.

Dave has employed the talents of Dr. Jill Stuart, an expert in space policy, ethics and law, to explain all about humanity’s plans to explore, potentially colonise and possibly even exploit the Moon. We also meet a differently-qualified lady, who was selling plots on the sun on eBay but they stopped her. And now she’s suing them. Wonderful!
