May 18, 2020 #63 Interesting things about Coronavirus
Luke and Don have sanitised their microphones, coughed into their elbows and maintained a generous 1.5m distance to discuss the Coronavirus.....As with all episodes of What's that About, the content is questionable and the anecdotes largely irrelevant.

November 10, 2019 #59 ASMR Videos
This week we're looking into the massively popular ASMR videos.
These videos are based around extremely close mic'd talking, role playing and scraping noises designed to elicit tingling on the scalp of viewers.
It's even weirder than it sounds- and yet, not as disturbing as a noise Don makes during the episode.
