Episode description

It’s bad news for Amazon Prime users, the price is going up by a pound a month. The tech giant said the increase was its first in the UK since 2014 and was due to "increased inflation and operating costs".


We hear from Dr Phil Wilby from the British Geographical Survey, one of the scientists who discovered a 560-million-year-old fossil thought to be the ‘first ever animal predator’. They’ve decided to name the discovery after Sir David Attenborough. 


Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner have joined a viral campaign calling on Instagram “to stop trying to be like TikTok”, the part-nationalised OneWeb merges with French satellite rival Eutelsat and scientists figure out how to store secret data in ink.


Plus, starchy green bananas could ‘prevent cancers’ in people with a hereditary risk, a study is launched into outdoor swimming as an alternative to antidepressants and we find out why tear drops might reveal more than you think.
