What makes you want to dance?

Ho to the power of three, it's a Christmas Eve episode of Science Weekly! This week Dan chats to neuroscientist Daniel Cameron about what makes us move... can a rhythm inspire a dance? How about low frequencies? And why is dancing something human beings love to do?? It's not like eating, which keeps us alive. Do we just do it for fun? Or is there something else going on... Dangerous Dan reveals the sinister side of the beloved and festive mistletoe, Tom tells his sister Curious Kate all about the clever abilities of electric vehicles, and Santamory examines the aerodynamics needed for Santa's travels around the world!  Have a very merry Christmas from everyone here at Science Weekly! Join Fun Kids Podcasts+: https://funkidslive.com/plusSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
