From the weather to the intricacies of banking and the cultural shifts in music. We kick off with a quintessentially British discussion about the weather, marking the onset of autumn with its dark evenings and occasional thunderstorms. The conversation meanders through the nostalgic charm of electric milk floats and the peculiarities of British transport history, touching on the London Electrobus Company from the early 1900s.

We explore the fascinating world of raw milk, comparing prices and availability across different regions, and discuss the challenges and regulations surrounding its distribution.

The episode takes a deep dive into the world of finance, with insights from Mads Palsvig, a former investment banker turned whistleblower. We discuss his five-step plan to create a more equitable economic system, focusing on the removal of usury, the introduction of a transaction tax and the redistribution of wealth through citizen dividends.

Music and culture also take center stage as we lament the disappearance of bands from the charts and the homogenization of music in the digital age. We reflect on the creative vibrancy of past decades and the role of live music venues in fostering artistic talent.
