We kick off Episode 28 with one of the big questions in life regarding fighting for your life against snakes and spiders, before delving into some arachnid anecdotes from our past.

This segues seamlessly into a fairtrade, fast fashion, classic woke twat examination of society.

Mickey poses some questions that lead us to examining the last 12 months living in lockdown.We throw in a fair bit of coffee chat, our weekly roundup of musical consumption and we celebrate another review on apple podcasts, if you’d like to be number 5, it’s there for the taking!

In the modern age, you attention is the ultimate currency. We discuss media, the monarchy, misogyny and more, with a healthy dose of poorly researched waffle...

Mickey discusses her 'happy bowler' concept - Do you do things just because they are fun? Have you put off trying something because you are worried about being good enough at it?

What are your measures of success and are they really serving you?

We dig in to a couple of listeners questions and check in on what we've been listening too this week, all wrapped up as always with some poorly researched waffle...

Can a life without purpose be fulfilling? Why can't you talk about sex work? What do you call bobby knocking and Chip shop hacks...

In classic Chop Wood Carry Water style we went off a a tangent filled adventure this week...

Disingenuous social media posts, how were are all being driven to pick sides, more online gurus and the dangers of pedestals, creative arts and knowing your worth, Sneaking onto Clubhouse, music discoveries and plenty of poorly researched waffle.

There's a fair bit of ranting this week, but who doesn't like letting off a bit of steam...

We wade into the murky waters of online gurus, the fetishisation of American culture, we tackle some listener questions and get lost in weeds a fair few times along the way...

From abandoning siblings in Harrods to pitching a new form of 'violent' cricket, this week picks up where we left off, wandering aimlessly down sidestreets and meandering through conversations like a couple of puppies let loose in a supermarket.

We close out our first 20 episodes by returning to what brought us together for episode 1, music!

But this time we dig in to more songs that make us angry, and it turns out there are a lot!

We talk a little more on the social dilemma and some of the issues it raises.

Mickey tells her infamous 'cassette' story, we chat fast fashion and 'retail therapy', before finding ourselves back at music...

Mickey regales us with a peak awkward conversation story which cements her place as a Lifelong Hufflepuff, we dig back in to social media and it's polarising 'echo chamber' effects, and then we pick out some songs that make us angry, not in the good way.
