Episodes
39. The French Revolution: When, why and so what?
20:10 | December 8th, 2020
We investigate a queen who wore a large ship in her hair, meet a king who made tables and we learn history from musicals!
Remembrance Day/Veterans’ Day Special Re-release
26:01 | November 10th, 2020
In a re-release for November 11 Remembrance Day, this special extended episode was recorded over several years and then released in April 2019. It’s a lot more serious than our usual fun-filled shows, but there’s lots to learn for kids and adults! And if you know a teacher who could use this episode, please share it with them – and with any other friends.
38. Ancient Greece: What made the Spartans the greatest warriors of the ancient world?
18:23 | November 7th, 2020
We go back around 2,500 years to the time of the Ancient Greek Empire. But as we’re not experts on Ancient Greece – in fact, Dad’s poor knowledge of Ancient Greece has always been his Achilles’ elbow – we are joined by an expert guest. We discover why kids were taught to steal, and we explain why people run a marathon today. And the episode comes to a climax with the Spartans last stand at the Battle of Thermopylae – as depicted in the movie 300., and (kinda) Star Wars: Rogue One.
37: Why did the USA go to war in Vietnam? (And why didn’t they win?)
21:25 | October 3rd, 2020
Parents, don’t worry, this episode is completely safe from gore and death. The only thing you need to be concerned about is whether you can keep up with your kids as they gain an understanding of communism, dominoes and the causes of America’s involvement in the Vietnam War.You’ll need to listen carefully so you can play to win in the Gorillas vs. Guerrillas game!
36. Who started World War I?
16:51 | September 4th, 2020
We look at why each of the major countries joined in the war and why so many people thought going to war was a good idea. And some of those soldiers were kids – listen to see if you’re older than the youngest kids who fought in a world war!
35. How to make money
19:27 | August 3rd, 2020
We find out all about the first civilisations in history to invent money. And Ed Washington, from Australia’s greatest money-making mint, tells us how to make money!
34. The craziest soldier in history?
17:34 | July 4th, 2020
Alongside special guest presenter Annie Foley, we investigate the amazing life of a soldier who fought in three continents, from his teenage years through to his 60s.
33. Africa invaded Europe! Where, when, why & how?
14:12 | June 6th, 2020
We investigate where, when, why and how? And when you hear our jokes, will you be shouting MOOR! MOOR! MOOR!?
