This week, we have a new segment called Blurt on Society, where we will chat about any topic that affects us or the general public, or any topical news here or abroad.

Next we will talk Science. This week we hear all about NASA trying to deflect an asteroid. And we also learn about synthetic milk.

And to round off the show, let's get comfortable with Nature Calls and chat about the weird and wonderful world of animals.

Let's get on with the show Wencee and Kegsta.
