Before I go any further, let me just state that this week's episode is swearier than normal. I'm not sure why, it's not like we were any angrier than normal; indeed, this week found us in fine spirits as we did an impromptu remix of a country classic, discussed the merits of liquid beef, and searched deep inside our souls.

What have we here then eh? I'll tell you in a second once I've remembered...Ah yes, in this week's episode you'll hear which podcast Ian has beef with, which condiments Ian has been researching, and some more stuff from Ian. But that's not all, there's also talking from Dan and Brendan, but I've forgotten what they said.

Behold, the 250th episode of The Slump! If we're honest, this crept up on us a bit, so we didn't really plan a lot of extra content for it, but there's a song, a special report from Owen, and a lot of unnecessary fanfares and really, what more do you want?

Dan is on holiday committing driving offences abroad, so Ian and Brendan bring you a special microslump, which is them talking a bit, but not enough to make a whole podcast out of. It's still entertaining, just not for as long.

Some awful music, some strangely-flavoured ice cream, and make up for men. These are but three of the topics discussed in the Slump this week, before they meander off into chatter for a while as normal.

Waxing large body parts, interesting ways of advertising educational establishments, and Dan shooting wildly into the air. These are some things that you'll hear three men talking about if you listen to this podcast.

A Slump is here, bringing talk of Spain's Zorro problem, Brendan's passport problems, and Dan's favourite hungover animal disposal story. It is, quite simply, a podcast.

This podcast is late. It's mainly (entirely) Dan's fault, but cast your anger aside and dive right into this podcast featuring your lazy hosts discussing all manner or matters, such as the wonderful world of Lakeland products, how mayonnaise might be mustard, and why we can't all just shut up a bit.

What do we have here then eh? Three men, a confined space, and some conversation. But what about? Kitchen products, technology in the workplace and the appropriate colour of condiments. All this and more (but not much more) inside this week's Slump.

The seas are full of jellyfish, the cars are full of rubbish, and this podcast is full of three men talking about those first two things, plus some other matters besides. Put it in a big bowl and slurp it all down.
