Richard Hammond reveals details on new Amazon Prime TV show YouTube: DRIVETRIBEWhilst he may be best known for presenting Top Gear and The Grand Tour, Richard Hammond is also a keen scientist and engineer. Relishing the chance to flex his scientific muscles once again, he\u2019s revealed more details about his \u201cvery very new and fresh\u201d Amazon Prime TV show. You may remember that back in the early 2000s Richard hosted a children\u2019s science show called Brainiac: Science Abuse. Famed for its plentiful use of explosives and dislike of caravans, Brainiac also introduced generations of children to the wonderful world of science and engineering. Richard isn\u2019t new to the pop-science game Fast forward over a decade since the last episode of Brainiac aired, and Hammond is once again putting on his lab coat to bring \u2018pop science\u2019 to the masses in his new Amazon Prime show alongside co-host Tory Belleci in a show that will be \u201cunlike anything that\u2019s been done before\u201d according to Hammond. Tory is no stranger to the world of popular science either, being well-known for his time on American pop-science show Mythbusters. Hosted by Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, Tory also starred alongside Kari Byron and the late Grant Imahara. These two giants of science entertainment aren\u2019t doing things by halves either. In an interview with DRIVETRIBE, Hammond explains that they will be using their \u201cpop science knowledge to not only survive\u2026 but to sur-thrive\u201d in their \u201ctotally new take\u201d on this style of show. When can we expect to see it? Discussing this new project, Hammond seems genuinely excited at the prospect of being \u2018trapped\u2019 on a desert island with only his (and Tory\u2019s) science and engineering know-how in order to survive. Unfortunately beyond the basic details, when asked what he could tell us Hammond responded with \u201cnot a lot; Because its kind of all under wraps\u201d so we may be due another update before the show airs. Richard did reveal that the show is currently in the process of being edited. With an expected release date later this year, you shouldn\u2019t have to wait too long to see these titans of science fight for survival.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
