    Not many people know this but when American swimmer Gertrude "Trudy" Ederle became the first woman to swim the English Channel on August 6, 1926, she was listening to this podcast via the world’s first waterproof headphones. Sure, they didn't work very well - they were just a hollow tube with two ends (one for each ear) but we’re still proud to have been involved. Thanks Trudy!

    Not many people know this, but when he was a boy Nikola Tesla hated learning things. He just wasn’t interested! One day, he was out for a drive with his mum and she had this podcast on in the car. He loved it, and realised then and there that knowing stuff is cool. At the same time he noticed how loud the internal combustion motor of the car was, and how that was interfering with his enjoyment of the show. ‘If only there was a way to make car engines quieter’ he thought. And the rest is history…
