Catching up on editing, this episode is from December, when we were getting concerned about the Omicron variant and what was going to happen.... Or not.... We discuss how wearing masks has made us start to communicate differently, how technology is making us communicate differently, and then veered off on a tangent about animals, food, and vegetarianism....so, a potpourri of subjects.... Not really about how we're not dead yet, come to think of it... 😁

This episode we enjoy a low - tech outdoor fire while discussing high technology, Moore's Law, what purpose our lives will have if technology does too much for us, what happens if we ourselves become the technology, and has this all happened before?.... A deep dive into philosophy this week, folks :)

In this episode we discuss knowledge: how to accumulate it, how to use it, and how we'll never know anything. The center recording time was unclear, so apologies for the time jump halfway through.

Its the missing summer episode, where we talk about it being the last weekend of classes, wonder what's going to happen in Afghanistan, and talk about how it is easy to become overwhelmed with information and bad news. We discuss reputable sources and helping the world by concentrating on one thing at a time.

This week Karen talks about her new job at a high school and Harrison talks about his first week in university. We both find out that teenagers are the same as they've always been, and that's a good thing, if a bit frustrating.... Harrison wants to sign up for lab experiments... Karen thinks thats the start of every horror film and James wants it to help travel to Mars.... With Robotic Cats.... 😁

In this episode we talk about preparing for the worst: like another pandemic or societal collapse, and preparing for the best: like Harrison's new college adventure.

In this episode we recount the semi- disaster of a camping trip we had: what we learned, what we appreciated, and what we should do next time.

Season 2 Episode 10: Lots of questions and deep thoughts about squirrels, zombies, bears, and human anatomy.

Season 2 Episode 9: Where we discuss how nature can be cruel, educational failings, John Hughes Movies, The need for practical use of what you have learned in Kung Fu and languages, how to save baby birds from cats, and how awesome it is to sit in our newly fixed up summer hut and listen to the rain falling as we podcast.

Season 2, Episode 8 Starts off in our almost refurbished back garden gazebo with pondering on what exactly is evaporated milk and how it can help us make tea if the world falls apart.... We then talk about tribes and kung fu, fencing and fishing while being constantly distracted by our cats.... 😁
