This week we head Down Under to meet a bird that is technically more dangerous than a cassowary, but certainly doesn’t deserve the bad reputation that it's given... and that's the wonderful Australian magpie! In the news, can a dead giant bring forth new life, and is this the end for Suchomimus? All this and more. The cupboard is open, come on in!

It's the end of the world... or at least the Ordovician world. Join us this week as Aaron gives us his first mass extinction breakdown. What made the end of the Ordovician one of Earth's major mass extinction events? Find out now! The cupboard is open, come on in!

Join us as Gareth takes the helm, steers us out of the cupboard, and on the search for a prehistoric ocean giant, Leedsichthys! We take a look at this formidable fish and the monstrous misinformation about its true size. In the news, Gareth ventures to the bottom of the garden to hear about the newest fish eating dinosaur, Spinosaurus’ salt glands, and a ring-neck parrot with a taste for Scottish cars. All this and more.
