'Stuff. It's everywhere. In your bedroom, in the kitchen, in the lounge room, everywhere is full of stuff. I'm talking about the ordinary stuff like chairs and carpet and dishwashing liquid and toast. You know what, it's all got a story. And those stories are funny, exciting, astonishing and some cases may even be true. In this very special Volume One, I only have time to tell you the story of Shampoo, Peanut Butter and the Days of the Week. And to tell you the now forgotten nation of trapezia was where all things were invented.'
