We tried to understand some of the bizarre things young people are doing these days, starting with pheromone maxing, where apparently skipping showers is meant to make you more attractive.

The only takeaway is clear: get it done if you must, but maybe don’t pick a Bali driveway.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Two Aussie entrepreneurs spotted Harry Styles casually walking through New York and decided they had one shot to get their brand into his hands.

If you've ever wondered what it smells like when an aeroplane door opens after a long-haul flight, former ground crew worker Trish from Cronulla has the answer, and it's not pretty. She says the worst offenders are the Perth red-eye flights, which apparently arrive smelling like a combination of "farty bum and bed breath." Ricki and Tim investigate whether long-haul flights are just as bad, with Trish confirming that all the late-night wine, beer and beer burps definitely don't help. Tim is horrified, while Ricki presumably starts questioning every flight she's ever taken.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Taylor Owynns is the actual voice behind the iconic announcements and reveals she’s been doing them for around 20 years, even having to call post offices to find out how to pronounce some tricky country town names. She explains how the announcements are recorded and why her voice was perfect for stitching all those little pieces together. And, naturally, Ricki and Tim couldn't let her leave without getting her to deliver a very special train announcement for them.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
