Science is great. It gives your brain a work-out and explains how everything in the world works. It's a shame about the boring bits though.

Each week neuroscientist Dr Jack Lewis & broadcaster (and science lover) Lliana Bird shed light on the strange, quirky stuff you never got taught at school, and provide intriguing insights that you can share around at the pub or at a dinner party. Like... the science of lesbian orgasms, Vulcan telepathy or squid-inspired invisibility cloaks.
