Peter and Dody put 2022 on the chopping board. Weaving in and out of our own experiences and big ways the world is changing, we get into catching covid, the war in Ukraine, and how it impacted cat food in Cairo.

Episode two has our first listener voice message, the question Dody won't answer – but he definitely wants all of you to send us notes about. Message us on [email protected].

We included audio from a documentary on 90 years of the BBC World Service. Peter talked about The Pink Line: The World's Queer Frontiers by Mark Gevisser and Dody about Dirt: Adventures in French Cooking by Bill Burford. Dody also mentioned Dave Winer's blog, Scripting News.

Thanks to Tarek for music and sound production and Anne for the voice note.
