Summary
Meet The Blowfish - the world's only heavy metal marine biologist! He's on the phone from New Zealand to tell us about The Rock Music Milkshake Mixer - a prototype for a unique, new milkshake blender... that's powered by an electric guitar! The Blowfish explains how the mixer uses sound energy from crunching guitar riffs to whip milk up into a delicious drink!
Plus, we travel back in time with Sir Sidney McSprocket to discover how sticky tape was invented, explore evidence that Julius Caesar actually invaded Britain, and learn about blood, valves, pulses... and everything else that helps your heart work!

| 0:39.2 | behind that magic in a little bit. Also, in this week's Dangerous Dan, we'll talk about the most |
| 0:43.7 | violent storm in the universe. It's been raging for over 350 years, and it's almost twice the |
| 0:50.8 | size of the earth. And in a sec, we'll chat to a science expert on the phone, |
