Cheerful Despair episodes

  • Season 1, Episode 6

    Few dared dream that when we began posting podcast episodes that one day we would have posted six and that would be the end of season one - but that event and that day have arrived.

    In the final episode of Cheerful Despair, prepare yourselves for:

    • Everyone involved to become sad and frustrated with the whole process, to say nothing of their lives
    • The Ultimate Slavery Quiz
    • A desperate appeal for you to love us

    Until we meet again, possibly in a future life, in a parallel universe, don't know where, don't know when, but I know we'll meet again some sunny day, keep on trucking.
