Episode 6 - It's Still Raining


Listen Later

Episode Six begins with rain. Not light rain. Not passing showers. The kind that makes you question where you live, and whether it has always been like this.

Dan and Adie join the group, and things start with a simple question about instruction manuals. Whether people still read them. Whether they ever did. And whether we were the last generation to at least pretend before immediately turning to YouTube.

The conversation moves on to cash. Or more specifically, its gradual disappearance. Where it still exists, why it matters, and whether the next generation will understand it at all. It is part nostalgia, part economics, and part suspicion that something is being lost.

Only then do cars arrive. With £25,000 to spend, what do you turn up to a school reunion in if you want to say something about yourself without actually saying anything? The answers are revealing. Some thoughtful. Some less so. All slightly influenced by ego.

Elsewhere, there is a brief but committed discussion about whether cats are, in fact, part of a wider intelligence network. A Six Nations prediction that is treated with unnecessary seriousness. And finally, an unexpectedly considered look at funeral songs, memory, and the last thing you would choose to leave behind.
