This week, we're talking about why curiosity is important and how we, sometimes inadvertently, prevent ourselves from exercising it.

This week, we're talking about how we forget most of what we learn and consider  ways of improving retention.

Some friends, having messed with hallucinogens, mistakenly believe their companion to have died, and an elephant pops into a shop for some snacks.

This week, we're talking about how we get in our own way by making things too complicated and failing to establish helpful strategies for getting stuff done.

I nearly burn myself alive with a BBQ, we ponder on what might make it worth being airlifted off a mountain (twice), and we're grateful for the same thing for different reasons.

This week, we're talking about the early developmental experiences that might have a significant impact on your ability to establish and sustain relationships.

There's also a cautionary tale about carrying glazed windows on your head down Mill Street.

Apologies if the episode sounds a bit rough around the edges but we recorded it late, I'm trying to upload it before my first client, and I haven't even had a shower...

This week, we discuss the perils of slipping on fruit, fear of vending machines, and the joy of greenhouses and short trousers.

If that weren't enough, we devote the more serious segment of the episode to a discussion on ways to deal with destructive criticism and the behaviours that can replace it toward much happier outcomes.

This week Martin has some wisdom related to the classic film, 'Citizen Kane'.

It's the first episode we've recorded while sitting in the same room for five years and, frankly, it was disturbing.

There's all the usual fun and frolics including the prematurely announced death of a Bulgarian footballer.

This week we're talking about how to keep your composure when someone tells you that Charlie Chaplin films are funny.

A mother steals ice cream from her child, who then gets the police involved, and a snake takes part in a heist and slithers off with some CBD oil.

Basically, it's more of the usual fare and, quite honestly, you'd be disappointed if it wasn't.

This week we're talking about ways of boosting your brain so that you don't find it as hard to remember who had the best selling single in 1974 (Mud - Tiger Feet) and you can manage to churn out a podcast on a Sunday afternoon.

We also discuss the merits of a good apple, reminisce about reading maps, and I'm grateful for plasters.

This week, we're talking about how much of our communication relies on what we do with our bodies.

There's all the usual guff but I can't be more specific than that because I'm in a rush.

This week we're discussing a neuropsychological condition that prevents individuals from expressing and identifying emotions.

We wonder why so many sports have what appears to be an unnecessary dress code, and wonder whether organisers had their priorities right when they allowed smoking and drinking in their events during the 80s whilst insisting the players wore specific clothing.

There's also an obese...

This week, we're discussing the things that make us feel wistful and sentimental, even though they often have no intrinsic value other than the sentiment we attach to them.

Martin's discovery of a business selling diapers for festival goers makes us think about the difficulties of relieving yourself in a crowd. A man takes his pet turkey for a run, and I do appallingly on our weekly quiz.

Happy New Year.

Over a cup of masala chai (me) we also cover shopping from bed (Martin), fake parades, how to stack the dishwasher, and whether it's OK to hide from carol singers.

A man sees a member of the royal family moonlighting in a UFO,  we agree that putting dogs in clothes is bad behaviour, and find gratitude in the radio and attending a funeral.

We're back.

This week, along with the usual inane chat, we're discussing why we might change our minds and differentiating between the healthy and not-so-healthy reasons for doing so.

There's unrest at a Chinese zoo, a new quiz that I do as badly at as the last one, and we disagree over petty theft.
