  • Do our brains really tell the whole story about us?

    Do our brains really tell the whole story about us?
    Jul 3 2025
    You know how sometimes you might indulge in a bit too much junk food, or maybe the kids aren’t acing their tests, or perhaps you’re navigating the single life? Hold up—before you start to worry, there’s a seemingly scientific explanation for all of it, and it points to one place: our brains. Neuroscience has become the go-to for decoding life’s issues, spanning medicine, economics, politics, and education. But hold your horses—some experts are raising the red flag on “neuromania,” the tendency to oversimplify our behaviors down to just brain activity. In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

  • Could mate poaching be a threat to your relationship?

    Could mate poaching be a threat to your relationship?
    Jul 3 2025
    All romantic relationships come with challenges, and one of the biggest hurdles tends to be fidelity. Over the years, there have been a number of studies on the prevalence of cheating, but it’s tricky to know how reliable data from those studies is. After all, it relies on people owning up to unfaithful behaviour. Generally speaking though, surveys from the likes of YouGov have suggested that around one in five people in the UK have had an affair at some point in their life. Why don’t these mate poachers just look for someone who’s actually available? Is there any way to spot a “mate poacher”? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

  • How do you get rid of fruit flies in the kitchen?

    How do you get rid of fruit flies in the kitchen?
    Jul 3 2025
    These tiny insects, which reproduce at an astonishing rate, often invade our kitchens. They are particularly attracted to damp areas, stagnant water, organic waste, and ripe fruit—especially in warm weather. Fruit flies, or midges, can lay up to 100 eggs a day. While studies indicate that flies can carry bacteria, viruses, and parasites, the midges in our homes are generally harmless. They can transmit bacteria and minor food-borne viruses, but rarely cause serious diseases. This is reassuring, but it doesn’t mean we want them around! So, how can you get rid of them? Are they a health hazard? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
