Explain Yourself" Special
15th December, 8pm- 9pm, http://www.standrewsradio.com

Just what is it that everyone DOES at this university?

"Explain Yourself!" is the new interview programme that aims to answer that question. We'll explore the secret lives of everyone from postgrads to professors, in fields from maths to metaphysics. "Research" might
sound like the most boring word ever, but "Explain Yourself!" is premised on the idea that if someone is doing research, there must be SOMETHING interesting about it.

With engaging, in-depth interviews and an unrepentant curiosity in the face of even the greatest obscurity, we find that interesting thing and drag it, thrashing and
wailing, into the light: the light of radio.

FIRST EPISODE of "Explain Yourself!": PhD students tell us about their immortal eyeball collections, shepherds playing ice hockey, and "revolutionary crazies" (technical term). Plus, a classicist struggles to learn some maths, and we learn which St Andrews professor who built his own flying machine has a secret collection of stuffed animals and seashells named after him.

[Blueswater]

And BluesWater are playing live tonight at 9pm on the David Graves and Andrew Morton show!

Don't you mean transparent eyeball? Sounds interesting either way.
