I never even imagined how loo paper was made 😲
I’m looking forward to this show. I still have Dr Karl’s video on The Project explaining why we get hungry and suffer the “Drunchies” after drinking booze with David Hasselhoff drunk off his chops on YouTube. I used to watch him on Sleek Geeks and a science show on the Discovery channel as well.
… great bloke Dr Karl, he was a regular on my ABC Local Radio program and always had something interesting to say …
