PRESENTERS


Dr Karl
Dr Karl Kruszelnicki is a science communicator, author, and broadcaster whose decades across radio, television, and print have made him one of Australia’s most recognisable science voices. A physicist and engineer, he has built a career answering delightfully odd questions.


MC


Caitlin Silberberg
Drawn to the weird animals most people avoid, Caitlin Silberberg is studying Tasmania’s endangered giant freshwater crayfish and the rivers they call home. Growing up in remote Tasmania turned a childhood spent flipping rocks and exploring creeks into a career helping protect one of the island’s most remarkable species.
