  • Episode 287: Deadly Reptiles & STEM Yarns
    In this episode, we sit down with proud Kamilaroi man, author, and science champion Corey Tutt to talk about his latest book Caution! This Book Contains Deadly Reptiles. We explore how this vibrant and educational book blends Indigenous knowledge with western science to inspire a new generation of curious minds - especially kids - about Australia’s most misunderstood creatures. Corey shares his journey as founder of the award-winning charity Deadly Science, which provides science resources to remote schools across the country. We discuss the power of representation in STEM, the importance of sharing First Nations science, and how reptiles - feared by many - can become a gateway to deeper respect for Country and culture. Get ready for a conversation that slithers between storytelling, science, and social change!Show theme music: Kevin MacLeodHost: Dr Olly Dove (@olly_dove)Co-Host: Dr Meredith Castles (@MeredithCstles)Production: Dr Meredith Castles (@MeredithCastles)Media & Promotion: Ella Burgun (@ebburgun)

  • Episode 286: How quantum computing could break the world…and fix it again
    Could you play Minecraft on a quantum computer?In this episode, we’re joined by Professor Susan Coppersmith from the University of New South Wales to explore the strange and fascinating world of quantum computing.We talk about why quantum computers are so different from the ones we use every day, what a qubit is, what makes this technology so powerful, and how it could reshape things like encryption and digital security.This episode peeks into a future that’s already being built—qubit by qubit.Show theme music: Kevin MacLeodThank you to the whole TWICS team for the incredible behind-the-scenes volunteering every week! Host: Dr Olly Dove (Insta: ols_dove)Co-Host: Georgia Stewart Production: Dr Simin SalarpourMedia & Promotion: Georgia Stewart

  • Episode 285: Into the Quantum Realm
    How does your phone know when to turn off the screen? Why can we build ultra-fast computers and super-sensitive sensors? And how does a DSLR camera capture images? Well, it’s all to do with quantum mechanics! In 2025, we’re celebrating the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, so there’s no better time to explore the strange but powerful rules that govern the quantum world. In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Sol Jacobsen from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology to break down what quantum mechanics really is, why it has a reputation for being difficult, and how it’s being harnessed in Sol’s research on spintronics—a quantum-based technology that could revolutionise the way we store and process information.Show theme music: Kevin MacLeodThank you to the whole TWICS team for the incredible behind-the-scenes volunteering every week! Host: Dr Olly Dove (Insta: ols_dove)Co-Host: Georgia StewartProduction: Ryan SmithMedia & Promotion: Georgia Stewart

  • Episode 284: Rocking the Classroom with Hands-On Science
    This week we chat with Jo Watkins, CEO of Australian Earth Science Education (AusEarthEd), a national not-for-profit bringing Earth and Environmental Science to classrooms around the country. From metro Perth to remote communities in the NT, Jo and her team are delivering hands-on STEM education through school incursions, teacher PD, and curriculum-aligned resources.We talk about Jo’s journey from science teacher to education leader, the challenges of engaging students in Earth science, and what it takes to grow a grassroots program into a national success.Show theme music: Kevin MacLeodThank you to the whole TWICS team for the incredible behind-the-scenes volunteering every week! Host: Dr Hannah Moore (@HannahClareMoore)Media & Promotion: Emma Hamasaki (@EmmaHamasaki)

  • Episode 283: Fantastic Exoplanets and Where to Find Them
    In this episode, we travel beyond our solar system to learn about the weird and wonderful world of exoplanets — planets orbiting stars far beyond our Sun.  Our expert guest, Dr Erica Thygesen from the University of Tasmania, takes us on a tour through how we discover these alien worlds, where they’re hiding, and just how many we’ve found so far.But finding exoplanets is just the beginning… Tracking them is a whole other challenge. We dive into the science of ephemeris refinement — the process of nailing down a planet’s orbit so we can predict exactly when to spot it next. Perfect timing is everything when you're trying to catch a glimpse of a distant world! Show theme music: Kevin MacLeodThank you to the whole TWICS team for the incredible behind-the-scenes volunteering every week! Host: Dr Olly Dove (Insta: ols_dove)Co-Host: Georgia Stewart (@ggstew25)Production: Richard Siu (Insta: richard.siu.photography)Media & Promotion: Georgia Stewart (@ggstew25)
