What a time to be alive. It feels like we've all aged a decade since our last episode under 4 months ago.
Today we discuss lockdown life - what we're wearing; eating; meme-ing - and recommend a plethora of articles, books and podcasts. There will be another episode on Sat.
*Please do note that because we are recording remotely via a trilogy of new tech, there may be some occasional audio issues.*
