Yooooo Hikers,
The Banshees are joined by FBI's most wanted and screenwriting boy genius Damien Higganbotham, who finally diagnoses Nic & Sophie with Beautiful Princess Disorder. Damien's mountain ranges vary from: anyone who plays loud music in public is on the side of the oppressor, don't sit down at the dog park (if you don't want to be molested by his cavoodle) and a series of perfect rapid-fire hills. This week's ep includes a special guest phone call with enemy of the pod, Riley Jones, who has a truly disturbing new hill. Sophie laments an awkward encounter at lifeguard training and Nicola laments a career in Irish dancing down the drain.
We also get earnest this week and discuss social media's role in the Gaza crisis, and what more we could be doing with our voices and our wallets.
