We investigate which animals did the most to win a war. We don’t just mean animals that helped a bit – we mean animals who win a war. We don’t give up until we find some amazing animal winners!
We investigate a queen who wore a large ship in her hair, meet a king who made tables and we learn history from musicals!
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.
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.
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!
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!
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!
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.
