One of the best reviews of Woodford Folk Festival you'll ever hear comes second-hand, from a new friend named Neil.

This episode was recorded live from the Woodford Folk Festival as part of First Wine of the Day. Day three, and Harley Breen has finally had a shower. With Nikki Britton stranded on the Bruce Highway (again), comedian Oliver Clark steps in as co-host — and promptly gets upstaged by a surprise grandma in full polyester, and the national treasure that is Dr. Karl.

Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki breaks down the three-part formula behind his seemingly infinite knowledge, sings a surprisingly committed rendition of Bad Case of Loving You, and reminds us all that science is simply a way to not get fooled. Then UK folk troubadour Beans on Toast, fresh off his first ever Woodford appearances the day before, drops in to play two songs — opening with the kind of song that sneaks up on you with Send Me a Bird, before closing out with the crowd singalong Beano, a love letter to Australian slang.

This episode is for:

• Anyone who's ever had their faith in humanity restored by a community
• People who want to know how Dr. Karl actually knows everything
• Anyone who needs a good cry followed immediately by a singalong about prawns

Dive in to hear about:

• What happens when your co-host gets stranded on the Bruce Highway and someone's grandma shows up instead
• The three-part formula Dr. Karl uses to make complex knowledge stick — and why a surprise midnight visit from a Hollywood A-lister is involved
• Beans on Toast finding a home at Woodford on his very first visit
