Stevie and Tessa’s excellent friend Ben Starr is only the bloody lead in Final Fantasy XVI, so he came in to a) explain how two people who are intimidated by gaming (and have only played the Sims) can ease themselves in and b) do his Clive voice which makes everyone both quite aroused and very uncomfortable.

You’d think this was fairly straightforward, so why is it so hard to admit defeat? Why do we use words like “admit defeat” when discussing a book? The book doesn’t know you’re not reading it! Stevie had these epiphanies recently, after pretending to read Crime and Punishment for circa 25 years, and Tessa is eager to learn.

How to Stop Reading a Book

By request, Stevie and Tessa discover what the triangle symbol means and discuss what the drawers mean. There's also some lively debate around when you put the fabric conditioner in, don't say this podcast doesn't provide you with the most searing of hot content.

How to Use the Washing Machine

If you or anyone you know is running the London marathon (or any marathon) and would like to feel much better about your training: Tessa ran two marathons, one without much training and one without any. She didn’t die, she was quite angry at herself the second time, but this is crucial listening if you’re fed up of high performance sports podcasts and wish to listen to someone who has gone through many people’s (Stevie‘s) worst nightmare and come out the other side.

How to Run a Marathon

Morning! Bored of toast? Stuck in a cereal rut? Constantly getting overwhelmed and eating one single mini egg (this may or may not be Tessa’s experience)? Stevie introduces Tessa to the concept of an egg and to be honest it all just spirals from there.

How to Decide What to Have for Breakfast

Today's episode is brought to you by Stevie, Tessa and the amazing Fi - a 'spacecraft thermal engineer'(!), podcast listener, and Excel champion, who offers her exceptional talents and guidance to two gals terrified of spreadsheets. A beginner's guide to Excel for the chronically afraid. A genuinely helpful episode (we think).
