Sam & Tim are treated to a rocking and rolling ditty in Cooking Up Tunes where they must identify all the different instruments that are creating the lively music. Then, be prepared to keep a face of stone as Sam & Tim battle it out in the hilarious challenge Don’t Make Me Laugh. If funny voices make you chuckle, this challenge might be extra tricky today!
Tim’s knowledge about all things botanical is put to the test when Sam presents him with three curious facts about plants - but one of them is actually bogus in True Or False. Later in the show, Sam & Tim learn a fantastic new word in Brain Train, but to kick-off the show, let’s talk about dancing cows…

Tim and Sam are welcomed with “plinks" and “plonks" in another melodic game of Cooking Up Tunes where the duo must figure out which instruments are being played in a cheery piece of music.
