Grab a dram and settle in for the very first episode of A Wee Dram—our new monthly slot, where Scott and Steve dive into a wide-ranging chat that starts with the flu and somehow ends up at quantum physics, Scottish weather trauma, deep-fried Mars bars, football heartbreak, world-changing medical breakthroughs, and the mystery of why Scotland produces more genius per square mile than anywhere else.

Along the way they unpack AI-powered drug discovery, the chaos of UK startup funding, the joy (and agony) of being a Scottish sports fan, why whisky and tartan are everywhere from London to Tokyo, and even tackle the serious rise of online sextortion and NSPCC’s crucial role.

It’s equal parts thoughtful, chaotic, sentimental, and laugh-out-loud Scottish.

Pour yourself something nice — you’re in for a cracking episode.
