Ask The Nincompoops are BACK! And they're going to STAY BEING BACK!
What are you doing on Saturday mornings? Well from now on, you're being EDUMACATED.
From next week, there'll be a new episode every Saturday morning when you wake up (unless you wake up at 3am - it won't be ready at that time. You also might need to see a sleep specialist).
And there's a brand new live show coming to London soon too. A university-standard education for your children under 10 in just an hour.*
Tickets here!

*This statement has been queried by a disappointing number of university chancellors, lecturers, lawyers, newspapers and attendees. But they're all wrong. It is.
If you have a question you want these two geniuses to ask, just send it, with your name and age, to askthenincompoops@gmail.com - and we'll try to answer them in an upcoming episode!
