I'll be honest, I edited this episode yesterday and I cannot remember for the life of me what we talk about. Something about Sea Beet I think? You're on your own.

Simon: I feel like I've needed therapy for quite some time
Dan, with no hesitation: yes
We're back! Filling your ears with honey and nonsense, including the Cod Wars, poetry, and a very strange video with a saxophone.

We. Are. Back.
What's the article? Who cares. Simon and Dan natter on about what they've been up to, and drop some major bombs. Dan is doing something very interesting next year! Simon loves The Mandalorian! Dan STILL hasn't seen Hamilton!
After our hiatus we're now back with regular episodes, and this time around they're being edited by Dan! That means things might sound a bit different, and possibly explain that we may have completely forgotten how our show works. Enjoy!

You asked, we delivered! We invited Adam on the show to tell us why we're not role models, and then get sucked into quick possibly the most interesting wiki-rabbit hole of all time. It involves death rays, Citizen Kane, and "Oom the Omnipotent". All this and much more in this bumper episode of the Wikicast!
