Eiffel tower is synonymous with its colourful lights at night. But the electricity shortage in Europe has forced the mayor of Paris to announce that lights will be turned off on the Eiffel tower an hour earlier than usual (by 11pm). Many monuments and government buildings across Europe (Germany and Spain included) will be turning off lights at night for the first time in decades. People have been asked to save electricity by not heating their homes beyond 19C. What's worse, many parts of Europe may even have to brace for long power cuts. People are collecting firewood as a backup. Sounds like a throwback to stone age?

Most of us have played with a remote-controlled car that we like to guide across several surfaces – both inside and outside our homes. It appears that the child in us (who loves such remote controlled cars) never left the minds of some Japanese scientists. Recently, they created a cyborg cockroach. Its movements are controlled remotely by scientists. They guide it to crawl under the debris and rubble of earthquakes. The camera attached to this cockroach can help people identify any humans who are trapped and are in need of urgent rescue.
A special episode where we do a throwback to our earlier episodes where our co-hosts had us at our wits end and rolling with laughter.
