Rachel Rayner, Science Explainer and confidante, Kirsty Kapp, catch up on the first four episodes of the series.

Rachel is thankful she can explain a bit of quantum physics, and Kirsty is excited about recognising Traditional Knowledge, and horrified at the lack of women in arts leadership in Australia’s recent past.

They argue about whether an octopus has eight arms or eight legs and celebrate science's role in making trivia great again. 

Head to each individual episode for more information on each.

Note, Rachel made some factual errors in the show:

• The technology stack has six layers, the seventh being Country.
• The Story of the Ned Kelly Gang, the world's first feature-length film, opened in 1906 (December, though, so she's close)
