  • Ep. 34: The Neckening
    This week, we grant independence to fussy household pets, design a device to defend against dodgy dental supplies, and present a visual solution to aid in minimising embarrassment on the street. In But Better, Tom's "ClienTalk" pitch helps us all to communicate better with our peers and loved ones.

  • Ep. 33: Schrödinger's Balls
    This week, we take inspiration from biblical inventions, make a practical (if somewhat lewd) defence mechanism for dropped keys, and rework your house around the most important device - the phone. In But Better, we help Oscar workshop 'T.A.E.H' into a foolproof spice-treating system.

  • Ep. 32: Spider Poisson
    This week, we utilise the canvas of the body as a memory aid, plot to outsmart household pests in a minimal budget, and destigmatise the careful transportation of belongings. In But Better, Oscar reveals his plans for 'VibrateMate' - luckily, keeping things fully PG.

  • Ep. 31: Stay Away Mum
    This week, we limit the impact of festive viewing choices, hire a disgraced rogue to ship a package, and automate the messy process of cleaning up after a household pet. In But Better, we shape Oscar's dream of 'RarelyWet™' into a selection of products for a fast-drying lifestyle.

  • Ep. 30: Lockdown III - Worldba Collective
    This week, we open the new year with a strong sense of community. We give homeowners the opportunity to support their neighbours in times of need, devise a non-threatening system to limit unnecessary downstairs excursions, and allow cleaning robots a shot at progression. To round off the show, 'tKtK' is the MultiFix we invent to solve daily gripes and wasted time.

  • Ep. 29: NYE Holiday Special - First World Resolutions
    This week, we're back after our Christmas break with a festive-tinged episode to see in the new year. We create single-use capsules for a perfect shower experience, mediate between clashing AI assistants, and offer the restaurant industry a refreshed approach to menu selection. In our final But Better of the year, we work with Tom to develop a suite of apps that take the effort out of giving.

  • Ep. 28: FishHand
    This week, we take a practical look at the complexities of festive decoration, create an all-purpose solution to an age-old concern, and enshrine the history of your home - with the help of a world-weary mascot. In But Better, we help with Oscar's singing range frustrations, using 'Faux-Cals' to bypass any limitations.

  • Ep. 27: Definitely Not Adverts
    This week, we create a near-exhaustive list of updated office jargon, avoid judgement at a fancy restaurant, and fill a noticeable void in on-demand video content. Closing out the show is "Nickname Generator", a But Better that finds a new way to come up with the perfect moniker.

  • Ep. 26: Lockdown II - All Banged Up
    This week, scheduling issues have us recording remotely again. We use this opportunity to rejuvenate the appeal of the humble thermos, and create a watertight new login system for your phone. We also try our hand at our first MultiFix problem, the RRIS.
