Join the legendary Dr Karl Kruszelnicki for a wild ride through surviving a blizzard in Antarctica (barefoot), test-driving four wheel drives across the Simpson Desert, the reality of beer goggles, and how he helped bring the word ‘selfie’ into the English language. Along the way, revisit Dr Karl’s glorious television past, from TV weather reports to Play School appearances.
Presenters:
