Mexican Jumping Beans

Deane on Hey Hey It's Saturday

It's a Brendan and Ben duo episode with an electric deep dive into Dick Smith Electronics, MacGyver's take on car phones, and a glimpse at the magical and terrifying time capsule of Hey Hey It's Saturday clips on YouTube.

Exploring Your World

The trio reunites to dissect (not literally) The Mighty Ducks, deconstruct (not literally) modern advertising, and demonstrate (literally) why callbacks don't work if you didn't record the thing being called back to. Oh, and there's a bit of The Curiosity Show in there too!

Mexican Jumping Beans

It's a Pod Full of Beans with Brendan and Ben, but not Tom, because his name does not share enough letters with the multifaceted legume. We talk jumping beans (both real and matchbox-tumbled foil), breaking bags of Bag-Of-Beans branded bean bag beans, a book full of beans by Richard Fowler, and zippers. And MacGuyver.

The Mystery of the Stolen Sheep

It finally happened, a Ben solo episode (not referring to Kylo Ren's given name, but maybe that'll be good for the algorithm?). Alone on a deserted highway at night outside of Litchfield in the Top End of Australia, experience the fairly low-fi ramblings of a parent whose baby has finally fallen asleep and is left to ponder the stars, the deep cuts of Harrison Ford's filmography, and a peculiar coffee table in the Mystery of the Stolen Sheep clip from The Curiosity Show.

Egg In A Bottle

We're going into the musical mind of Brendan this week as he and Ben celebrate the taste and fashion of a couple of budding dorks. If Tom was there it would be much trendier. And Deane shows us how to get a boiled egg into an old-fashioned milk bottle, and some talk of Full House for good measure.
