  • What is Pancake Day?

    What is Pancake Day?
    Mar 3 2026
    Feeling hungry? It’s march 3rd, Pancake Day ! Which means you have to choose your favourite toppings! Pancake Day is also known as Shrove Tuesday, which marks the day before the start of Lent on the Christian calendar. The date changes every year, as it depends on when Easter falls. According to Christian tradition, Pancake Day marks the last day of excess allowed before Lent. The following day is Ash Wednesday, and the beginning of 40 days of prayer and fasting. During Lent, practising Christians often give up something as a personal sacrifice to remember the forty days Jesus spent in the desert. Lent ends on Easter Sunday, when Christians celebrate Jesus’s resurrection from the dead, after being crucified. How far back does the celebration of Pancake Day go? Why eating pancakes ?

  • What is the female gaze?

    What is the female gaze?
    Mar 3 2026
    To celebrate International Women's Day, which falls on March 8th, Bababam is replaying Do You Really Know episodes which look at the struggle against inequalities between women and men. All week long, refresh your knowledge about ideas and concepts which promote female empowerment. What is the female gaze? The term “female gaze” has been used in recent years to describe art that subverts the male perspective. The concept is seen as a response to Laura Mulvey’s 1975 essay about the so-called “male gaze”. Historically, this has been the dominant way of viewing art forms, with the male creator and male characters catering to male viewers. The rest of the characters often exist mainly to serve the male lead, his interests and his story. As a result, women have often been objectified or ignored, with their characters oversimplified. Why has this happened? Is it about reversing the roles and objectifying men rather than women? What are some examples of female gaze films then? ⁠In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!⁠ To listen the last episodes, you can click here: ⁠What is white privilege?⁠ ⁠What is CrossFit?⁠ ⁠What is jiko sekinin?⁠ A podcast written and realised by Joseph Chance.

    Can you train your brain like a muscle?
    Mar 2 2026
    The human brain isn’t actually a muscle, as a lot of people think. But nevertheless we still need to give it exercise to keep it healthy. While you can go to the gym to work out the muscles in your body, the equivalent for the brain is training and stimulating something called "brain plasticity”. Verywellmind.com says that plasticity “refers to the brain's malleability or ability to change”. And it’s definitely worth working to improve it too, as it can give cognitive performance a real boost. Are you saying improving brain plasticity makes you smarter? What kind of exercises can I do to improve those then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
