episode The Grip of Reality: Why Masking Tape Can't Make Up It's Mind. cover

The Grip of Reality: Why Masking Tape Can't Make Up It's Mind.

The Grip of Reality: Why Masking Tape Can’t Make Up Its Mind In this episode, Craig Chapman tackles the fickle world of pressure-sensitive adhesives. Why does one piece of masking tape fall off a jar of lentils immediately, while another becomes a permanent part of a cardboard box for fourteen years? We dive deep into the science of "tack," the liquid-solid mystery of viscoelasticity, and why the "crepe" in crepe paper is the secret to navigating life's curves. Plus, Craig examines a standard AA battery in What Do I Have Here? and addresses some truly random listener queries about warm TV remotes and "screaming" tape in The Listeners Corner. It’s a slow, steady look at the sticky situations we usually ignore. * Visit our website: www.nowthatsnotaveryinterestingpodcast.co.uk [http://www.nowthatsnotaveryinterestingpodcast.co.uk] * Get in touch: NowThatsNotAVeryInterestingPodcast@mail.com [NowThatsNotAVeryInterestingPodcast@mail.com]

The Various Types of Washing Machine Cycles

40 Degrees Celsius: The Various Types of Washing Machine Cycles In this episode, Craig Chapman takes a long, hard look at the laundry room’s most confusing wheel: the washing machine dial. From the "scorched earth" policy of a 90°C boil wash to the optimistic 15-minute sprint of the "Quick Wash," we break down what those symbols actually mean. We also dive into the mechanics of the soap drawer, explain the clicking of the solenoid valve, and explore the manufacturing secrets of the humble cellulose bath sponge in What Do I Have Here? It’s an episode for anyone who has ever stared at a pile of laundry and felt... absolutely nothing. * Visit our website: www.nowthatsnotaveryinterestingpodcast.co.uk * Get in touch: NowThatsNotAVeryInterestingPodcast@mail.com [NowThatsNotAVeryInterestingPodcast@mail.com] Stay Functional!

episode Trial by Test Tube: The Rise and Fall of Children's Chemistry Sets. cover

Trial by Test Tube: The Rise and Fall of Children's Chemistry Sets.

Dust off your safety goggles and clear the kitchen table as we investigate the slow dissolution of the classic 90s chemistry set. From the hazardous thrill of Copper(II) sulfate to the modern-day "safe" alternatives that are essentially just baking soda and food coloring, we’re dissecting how regulation and litigation changed the way we played with fire—literally! We also take a close listen to the clinical precision of the **Littmann Stethoscope** and welcome a new listener from Whitby who has remarkably survived a binge-session of our road safety archives.

episode The Different Types of Hammers! cover

The Different Types of Hammers!

Step into the kinetic arc of the utility cupboard as we break down the physics, the balance, and the undeniable satisfaction of the 16-ounce claw. From the polite "thud" of the rubber mallet to the surgical precision of the tack hammer, we’re exploring why hitting things correctly is a delicate dance of leverage. Our favorite Youtube transatlantic tinkerer, MericanMaker, returns to the workshop to share his personal, heavy-duty perspective on everything from the "heavy ghost" of dead blow hammers to the bone-rattling reality of all-metal handles. Listen now on Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, or your preferred platform. Have a mundane observation or a technical question for Randy?

episode Could the Common House-Fly Survive Without Wings? cover

Could the Common House-Fly Survive Without Wings?

"A fly in the air is a masterpiece of aeronautical engineering. A fly on the ground is merely a wanderer in a polished desert." In this installment, Craig Chapman steps away from the utility cupboard to ponder a question of speculative biology: Could the Common House-Fly Survive Without Wings? From the logistical nightmare of finding glucose on a kitchen floor to the inevitable "looming response" of a cellar spider, we explore the grim reality of life as a six-legged pedestrian. Also in this episode: * Unintentional Linen Portraiture: Craig discovers a Victorian coal miner living in the creases of his 10.5 tog duvet. * What Do I Have Here?: A deep dive into the hollow resonance of a shattered 60-watt light bulb (gloves were worn). * The Empty Inbox: Craig addresses the total lack of listener mail with his trademark warmth and emotional stability. * A Note on Cadence: An explanation regarding our recent "fluctuating" release schedule. Digital Headquarters: www.nowthatsnotaveryinterestingpodcast.co.uk [http://www.nowthatsnotaveryinterestingpodcast.co.uk] Visit the *Archives** to view Craig's latest photographs of duvet faces and Sunderland grout.* Get in Touch: NowThatsNotAVeryInterestingPodcast@mail.com [NowThatsNotAVeryInterestingPodcast@mail.com] Send us your mundane observations, or continue the silent treatment. Craig is fine either way. Stay functional.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
