  • Hi there everyone we're back in my office once more.
  • You might be familiar with this site if you've watched some of my other videos, particularly Numberphile.
  • We record a lot of videos here doing mathematics and everyone notices the things in the background and often asks me questions about them.
  • So I'm going to talk about a couple of them today, I don't know, just because.
  • Let me start with this lightsaber, which is sort of a rough copy of the lightsaber that Luke Skywalker has in Return of the Jedi.
  • This is pretty much homemade, I think some guy in Adelaide where I'm from probably just made it on a lathe.
  • And although Star Wars toys and plastic things like that have been around for a long time now, back in sort of the 1990s when this was made it wasn't quite so common to have sort of sturdy nice metal replica Star Wars things.
  • And I remember seeing this in a glass cabinet at a comic book shop in Adelaide and I'd never seen anything like it.
  • I couldn't believe it.
  • I know now they make better ones and you've probably seen YouTube videos where people make better ones, but at the time it was incredible and I used to just stare at it through the glass thinking, oh man,
  • Like Waynesworld.
  • It will be mine, oh yes, it will be mine.
  • I can't remember what it was probably a hundred or two hundred dollars and there was no way that I could afford to buy it.
  • Anyway, a few months later I got my first job at a newspaper in Adelaide and then I got my first paycheck.
  • And I remember saying to my dad how much I loved this lightsaber at the comic book store and he said, why don't you just go and buy it?
  • And I was like, I can't buy it, it costs a lot of money.
  • And then I realized, well I actually had some money in the bank.
  • And I remember getting on a bus into the center of town, walking into the comic book store, and then I didn't know how to say it.
  • I didn't know how to even say the words.
  • Could I, could I have, have the lightsaber and the glass, can you get it?
  • I couldn't believe I was asking him to get it out for me.
  • And the guy that ran the shop went and got it, put it in front of me.
  • I touched it, I held it, I couldn't believe it.
  • And then pulled out the money and paid for it and he gave it to me.
  • He wrapped it in a, I remember he wrapped it in this paper bag and then I sat on the bus holding this lightsaber that I've been looking at for months and I finally owned it.
  • I couldn't believe it.
  • It was probably the most expensive thing I owned.
  • And like, life has moved on now and I've bought other things slightly more expensive and had other experiences.
  • But everywhere I go, every country I've moved to, every house I've lived in, this comes with me.
  • The first proper thing I coveted and then bought and now it sits on the shelf behind me and I love it.
  • I'll quickly mention this because lots of people see it on the shelf.
  • I believe it's a Hanukkah menorah.
  • It's a Jewish thing.
  • A lot of people see it and ask me oh is Brady Jewish?
  • I'm not Jewish.
  • But I bought this in Jerusalem.
  • I went and did a bunch of films in Jerusalem for my Bible Decks YouTube channel where I made videos about every book of the Bible.
  • I had a fantastic time in Israel.
  • I really enjoyed it.
  • And I just bought this as a souvenir.
  • Something to kind of remember my time there by and put it on the shelf and I like the look of it.
  • I don't even understand fully the traditions of it and how it's used.
  • I can read about it on Wikipedia of course.
  • But it really is just something decorative and brings back a lot of happy memories of a filming trip.
  • Here's something that some people might not recognize, others will.
  • This is a cricket bowl if you've never seen one before.
  • It's a used cricket ball.
  • It's been used in a game.
  • It's made of red leather.
  • You can see it's split down the middle there and stitching.
  • Call that the seam in cricket.
  • The reason I kept this particular ball, it was from just a game of club cricket that I played in Australia.
  • I had a very good friend of mine called Chris and we were best cricket friends.
  • We talked about cricket all the time.
  • We both had a real passion for the sport but we never played together very much.
  • And this was one of the few games we played together in and he was bowling and I was wicketkeeping for those who understand anything about cricket.
  • And he bowled a ball that caught the outside edge of the batsman and I took the catch.
  • So it was a souvenir of one of the few times we played together and teamed up for a wicket.
  • And that was the ball from that day.
  • Still sort of got dirt on it and grass stains on the seam.
  • Scuffed up and used in action.
  • Here's something fun.
  • Someone who has listened to my podcast over the years also happened to be involved in working on Air Force One in the Obama years.
  • And these are some of the famous presidential M&Ms that you would be given if you were flying on Air Force One.
  • I've never opened the box or eaten them.
  • The M&Ms are still in there.
  • And just for good measure they also do the Hershey's Kisses presidential style if you prefer those.
  • I wonder what they taste like now.
  • It's been a while since the Obama years.
  • Oh yeah.
  • And there's the napkins from the plane as well.
  • Nice one.
  • All right.
  • Funnily enough this isn't intentional.
  • I have them sitting on my West Wing box set.
  • Lots of other bits and pieces here.
  • Maybe we'll save them for another video.
  • What do you say James?
  • Yeah.
  • We'll do them another day.

  • What's the difference between a harpsichord and a piano?
  • It's the action inside.
  • The instrument right behind you is a 1793 instrument by Broadwood.
  • So it's exactly the same date, the same company, but this is a harpsichord.
  • And if you play a note you'll hear it's quite different.
  • Oh yeah this is like in the strings in here.
  • Whereas in a piano you're hitting the strings.
  • So are you ready people?
  • Here's a pluck
  • And now here's a hit.
  • Nearly the same note as well.
  • Well you know I know my notes.
  • I've got no idea.
