Welcome back to the second instalment of the debate on Nature vs. Nurture! The boys wrap up this topic with interesting discussions on exactly what it is that makes us, us! Mitch dives into mental health disorders and how much of it is a predisposition and how much is your environment. Tom looks at our all-round personality from the side of nature vs nurture, how much of your decisions and internal characteristics are you born with? From Freud to Skinner, all will be revealed! The boys end the show exploring various twin studies and their importance in this subject area. Music: HOME - AWAY

Are you shaped by your genes, or moulded by your environment? This week we're diving deep into the age-old debate of Nature vs. Nurture! From twin studies to epigenetics, we’re exploring whether you’re a product of your DNA—or just the world around you. Tune in to find out if your quirks are wired in, or you gained them along the way!

This week Tom and Mitch investigate genetics and Inheritance! Ever wondered why you have the hair colour or type that you do? Why are there so many breeds of dogs yet they are still considered a single species? Well this is where to find out! Tom explains what genes are and how they are inherited, including dominant and recessive alleles. Mitch explains in detail Mendel’s laws of inheritance and introduces us to important genetic concepts and The Incredibles. Music: HOME - AWAY

This week Tom and Mitch investigate Light! Because what is it really? Well Tom reveals the secrets on what light might be and whether photons are actual particles or not and how light interacts with matter. Mitch then dives deep into the electromagnetic spectrum and the doppler effect and whether light is a wave, a particle, both, or something entirely different? Music: HOME - AWAY

This week Tom and Mitch revisit geoengineering! The boys set out defining the topic again and how that has changed since we last visited the topic… which is a lot! Mitch takes us through the main methods and technologies involved in geoengineering: solar radiation management, aimed at reflecting sunlight away and carbon dioxide removal, aimed at treating the cause of climate change. Tom then dives into ocean specific measures that we can take to combat climate change. But the biggest question of it all… is it an ethical practice? Music: HOME - AWAY

This week Tom and Mitch are back to speak about senses! Mitch goes through the various human senses and explains how various disorders can effect the way they work and we experience the world. Tom takes a quick look at synaesthesia exploring what happens when neurological sense processes are interconnected. Mitch then rounds out the show with the much-awaited visual snow update!

This week Tom and Mitch revisit the world of senses! A lot has changed in the last two years, so come and find out about the how we perceive the world. I this first instalment, Mitch and Tom set the background of what senses are, how are bodies utilise them, and how they interact. Tom explores the five main senses and some interesting interactions you may not know about. Mitch explores the less known senses that keep us running. And, of course, the boys tangent their way through this show.

This week Tom and Mitch hit the ground running with sports science! Mitch dives right into what happens to our bodies when we exercise. From the muscle activity and build-up of lactic acid to kinetics and how we move. Tom takes a scientific approach looking at the underpinnings of biomechanics and sport psychology. How can we study the movements we make and train our mind to improve performance? Then it all breaks down as the boys debate the animal Olympics, who can jump the highest? Who can lift the most? And which species would win a free-for-all battle royale?
