We discover the Jevons Paradox and the Arsenal Puncture

📺 ITV vs BBC: The World Cup Studio Debate

Who does tournament coverage better? Better pundits, better presenters, better theme music? The lads enter one of British sport's most important arguments.

📈 Jevons Paradox

A surprisingly fascinating economic theory that somehow finds its way into a comedy podcast. Efficiency goes up... so why do we end up using more of something?

🐦 Richie Is Not Much of a Bird Spotter

A revelation that shocks absolutely nobody. Binoculars remain firmly unused.

🚲 The Arsenal Puncture

Chris discovers a cycling phenomenon affecting riders in Islington. Is it real? Is it coincidence? Is it somehow Arsenal's fault?

🎙️ Mildly Informed returns, with Absolute Radio’s Richie Firth and The Bugle’s Chris Skinner once again combining niche knowledge, local observations and wildly varying levels of expertise.

This week's episode jumps from World Cup broadcasting politics to economic theory, before detouring through birdwatching and ending up in North London's cycling community.

It's one of those episodes where you learn something, immediately forget it, and then remember a completely unrelated story about a bicycle puncture.

PLUS — over on Patreon, the lads continue the conversation with even less structure and even stronger opinions.
