It's a full house today. Me, Carl, Chris and Laura talk about addictions. There's a guy in America (of course) that's addicted to plastic surgery. He's had all his face done as well as shoulder implants, pectoral implants and who knows what else. He looks ridiculous!. 

Are any addictions good for you? Well possibly going to the gym and working out is, for health reasons, but as soon as piling on muscle becomes an addiction that can lead to all sorts of dangerous things such as taking steroids.

Me, Carl and Laura are in the studio and Chris phones in from Her Majesty's Prison Belmarsh to give his opinion on the latest movie version of Aladdin. 

Us normals thought it was a good film but the snowflake didn't like it. Considering it was directed by Guy Ritchie I was expecting lots of swearing, crazy Russians and an assortment of pikeys. However, it turned out to be good old family fun. What a let down.

Maybe Tarantino should direct the next Disney classic.

Laura, Carl and myself discuss cults. What's the attraction? Are people looking for somewhere to belong? It's a strange topic. Carl talks about Jonestown and the 918 people that died. Some were murdered and some committed suicide. About a third of that number were children.

How would you go about even starting a cult? Adverts in the paper? Recruitment drive? Or just preying on lost and vulnerable people?

Me, Carl and Laura discuss equality in all it's shapes and forms. But specifically in the workplace. I have to agree that if ten people are doing exactly the same role then they should be paid exactly the same wage, regardless of whether they are men, women, black, white, disabled or a dwarf. Although the dwarf wouldn't really need as much money as they probably eat less and need smaller houses.

I do have a strong opinion on men becoming women and then competing in women's sports. That's just ludicrous.

Eventually we decide that men are much better at things than women. Or, I may have made that bit up.

It's me Carl and Laura again. Carl wants to talk about what's happening with our online data. We've all seen that documentary 'The Great Hack' where Cambridge Analytica helped themselves to everyone's data via Facebook. How did they get away with it for so long? But what's more worrying is how much power all that data gave them. They were running successful campaigns and basically brainwashing people to make certain decision, which is how we ended up with Trump.

So today me, Carl and our new co-host Laura talk about destiny and free will. Are our lives already planned out or are they affected by the decisions we make? Personally I can't see how it can just be either one or the other. Surely it has to be a mixture of both, but the only way that makes any sense is if we are living in a simulation where the parameters are set and we just make small adjustments ourselves.

I didn't really want to go down the 'living in a simulation' rabbit hole again but how else would it work?

I had a question for Carl and Chris this week. What would they do if they came outside in the morning and there was a bloody great big spaceship just parked there in the sky. You know, like the beginning of Independence Day.

Carl is arming himself to the teeth and going into full Rambo mode. Chris would just be gobsmacked and I'd be pointing in everyone's face shouting 'See, I told you!'.

In all seriousness though I think society would fall to pieces instantly with everyone panicking. Nobody would go to work. There'd be mass looting in all the supermarkets for all the essentials because as we know from previous disasters everyone has meals of bread and milk in a crisis.

This week Carl, Chris and I discuss whether serial killers are born bonkers or are they victims of their environment from a young age. Being a killer doesn't seem hereditary.

Also we decide that University is a waste of time. Get a job and study part time. That's the only thing that makes sense to me. Though to be fair I did miss out on all those years of debauchery, drugs and alcohol so I don't really know what I've missed.

This week, Carl, Chris and myself catch up on my latest doctor visits and results. We also talk about carrying weapons for self defence but Carl has no need for one as he's mainly the attacker in these situations but having a taser would be a great laugh at parties.

And Chris has had 5 or 6 people recently telling him that he's giving off a gay vibe. Maybe our suspicions are correct.

I'm not much help in this podcast. We talk about Brexit and the possibility of Bonking Boris becoming the new Prime Minister.

And why not? America has their own comedy leader and Ukraine's next president is actually a real comedian. 

Chris suggests we should be buddying up with the Chinese as they are likely to end up as the most powerful nation. I'll be ok then as I've spent a fortune in The Golden Bowl over the years. Not so much lately though. The portions are not as big as they used to be.
