Yeah, how will that work? Not for myself. Just interested to know how it will work. Thanks for the info. Good to know how it will work for those people. The porn people. Hope they'll be OK with it. And will anyone be able to access the data? I wonder. On behalf of those people. Or see what they've been looking at?


Just say no, kids. You might start with a custard cream, thinking it's just a bit of harmless fun, but look where it leads. Drinking huge jugs of custard might seem cool when you're with your friends in the park, but the real life consequences are huge.
RIP Leslie Lemon. Taken too soon. Addiction is real. Live fast, drink custard, die at 106. So close to being the world's oldest man, but then that is a death sentence so lucky he didn't make it.


More podcast records today - surely I have enough podcasts to last me into the 2030s.... I do have a few in the bank for the autumn and we're saving up a lot of the Edinburgh ones too, but the turnover for these things is insane.
I've really been enjoying the studio podcasts and today I did a zoom call to Australia to talk to Angas Tiernan, the sexy nerd who is the face of the brilliant Minute Cryptic and then later invited the comedian Catie Wilkins over to my office to record an Edinburgh podcast about her terrific new stand up show We'll See.
Who did I flirt with more? I am not sure.
It was so weird seeing Angas in front of his bookcase where he does his videos and be able to interact with him. I've interviewed a lot of big stars over the years and admittedly been star struck a few times, but Angas Tiernan is right up there. I see him every morning.
Also an incredible line from Australia. The problem with doing remote podcasts is if it's even just a few moments out of sync it's hard to keep the conversation flowing, but this was perfect. The modern world is a thing of wonder. As long as you ignore all the terrible bits.
It was his first ever podcast, but he dealt with me well and his new book is great.
I had a lot of fun with Catie too. That one will go out on the 30th July and you do NOT want to miss it. It's worth it just for the revelation that Catie hasn't heard anything about the recent poisoned mushroom case. Unbelievable. But then it's pretty unbelievable that she married me, so maybe I should shut up.
