In this episode, we talk a lot about wanting to talk about triggers, then mention a few of them as we get carried away in other conversation. We consider how a Kieth Floyd drinking game could have been a game show precursor to Gogglebox, and why it’s stupid for the Government to try and ban crumpets.
Wil highlights some issues about supermarkets (again), especially when it comes to store layouts and tracking your journey around them. Andy shows his age by remembering when there was a time when there was some form of nightlife in Dudley, and we ask why delivery style apps can’t have the same filtering and blocking systems used by gambling sites. We also briefly talked about what happened when BBC News West Midlands came to say hello to us.
Oh, and also: Chicken.com is a real chain of fried chicken shops in the UK. We highly recommend you NOT go there, for your own safety.
