We Fact Up
Summary: We Fact Up was born out of the notion that before the internet existed people would have to actually try and work things out for themselves when asked a question. Like, “why did the CIA put batteries into cats during the 1960’s” or “how long would you survive in space for”. Hosted by Dave Zwolenski and Matthew "Redd" Peterson come with us as we embark on a journey to understand life's hidden mysteries, one stupid conversation at a time. No fact will ever be the same.

When it comes to bravery the pigeon or "rat of the sky" as Hannah calls it, seems like an unlikely candidate. But that all changed one fateful day in 1919 when the pigeon stared the God of Death (and possibly Nazis) in the face and said not today Mr. Death. Not today.
Ain't nothin better than the feeling of popcorn, coke and a choc top while you watch your favourite flick. In this ep we try to work out how popcorn become synonymous with movies and why Dave can't handle stupid people.
The Lion may be King of the Jungle, but the Unicorn is Queen of the Rainbows and, apparently, Britain's currency. Find out why in this episode filled with rainbows, lollipops and human hatred.
Cartoons and the construction business don't go hand in hand in Japan it seems. Especially when that hand only has four fingers. Find out why Bob's missing digit caused concern in the land of the rising sun. Plus Redd shows us his distaste for Bieber fever.
This is one the guys are determined to get to the BOTTOM of once and for all.
Australia's brightest-shirt-wearing scientist is back to help us back onto the path to enlightment, and maybe work up a bit of a sweat along the way.
Ever been drunk in New york at 1am trying to hand over cash to a cabbie and realised you just spent your life savings. Hannah has. In this one we get a little annoyed at the yanks for sticking to tradition and making life difficult for the rest of the world... as usual.
In the spookiest episode yet, Redd finds a mysterious note on his car left by a stranger, Hannah terrorises some children and Dave makes the worst choice of his life.
This week we talk Apocalypse parties, Redd's mum ruining a police bust and what it would be like if Jason Statham played Mary Poppins... plus we answer a question, eventually.
Before you take a bite of that big breakfast, you might want to take a listen to this ep - the answer may make you re-think your order.
It's been a long time coming but our co-host, bestie and all round legend Hannah Schuback is finally home! Oh god how we've missed her. Tune in to find out what she's been up to, and also why we throw coins into fountains. Let the reunion begin!
Everyone's got that uncle who just seems to know everything, but why is he called Bob and what did he do to his nephew?! Tommy Little stops by the studio to critique our hosting skills, denegrate Avicii and, above all, definitely not promote any of his upcoming Comedy shows.
In what may be the most insanely well thought out rationale ever, comedian Liam Ryan gives us his thoughts on the ancient art of dousing your servant in honey (and possibly deep frying them). Also, Redd and Dave save a puppy!
Fair Dinkum is about as Aussie as it comes. It's up there with budgie smuggler, dead dingo's donger and av-a-go-yer-mug, but does anyone actually know where it came from and what it originally meant? You're about to find out.
The wondrously weird and fantastically funny Paul Foot joins us this week to discuss why a monkey would be employed by a railroad and how off-the-chain their staff parties would be. It needs to be heard to be believed... and understood!
