Episode description
Rachel is up first this week with a lighthearted study that investigated why banana peels are so slippery when stepped on.
Victoria then swerves into Rachel's lane and takes us to Australia to investigate the origin of the Dingo.
Kirk is up last and brings us the story of a newly discovered wasp from millions of years ago that had an amazing adaptation for trapping insects like a venus flytrap.
