Science, Sass and Song: The Radiothon Riff-Off

Animals, Biology, Environment, History, Music, Natural Sciences, Science & Medicine

For a fabulously nerdy Radiothon special, Dr Cat goes full STEAM ahead with a science-packed extravaganza. She tests her history buff brother Sasha Kober’s knowledge of scientific discoveries and historical episodes of Science Queeries. She fields questions in an Ask Me Anything, runs a quiz showdown between her brother and Little Jase from Big Bi+ Questions, and belts out some science karaoke. It’s brains, banter, and belting for a brilliant cause: supporting JOY.

This episode originally aired on 13th May, 2025.
