Chips. We all have a soft spot for the crisp potato, but what is it that makes you keep wanting more? Professor Charles Spence is the head of the cross-modal research laboratory at Oxford University. There is no one on earth that has conducted more research on chips (or crisps) than Professor Spence. He joined Chris & Ali on By The Glass to discuss how something as simple as the colour and texture of the packet can influence your experience. Professor Spence's research goes far beyond the chip packet, too, having worked alongside renown chef Heston Blumenthal at The Fat Duck in the UK. His studies encompass how factors around you - like lighting, sound and even the weight of your cutlery - can change your experience when dining. His newest book, Gastrophsycics: The New Science Of Eating (Penguin books), discusses how to create sticky memories, after that 'perfect' meal is finished. *Disclaimer; this episode may cause you to need a packet of crisps.

Throughout our lives, we yearn to find "the best job in the world". Businesses advertise positions with the title, travel companies run competitions that, if you win, you'll have what everyone wants - but only for a short time. But at the end of the day, it's all subjective, isn't it? Now meet Jane Ferarri. Her role as Yalumba's brand ambassador is what many would classify as "the best job in the world". Jane joined Chris & Ali on By The Glass to explain what she does, and proved exactly why she's so good at it. Theme music courtesy of Max Savage Image by By The Glass Recorded live at Mache
