Summary

[Part 2 of 2] Since recording part 1 of this conversation, Antony caught COVID-19 and lost a bit of weight, but he managed to talk for about 100 minutes here about more topics he has previously covered in episodes of his podcast "Life & Life Only". Here we discuss diverse things including the extraordinary feats of endurance by David Blaine🕴🏻, food and dieting 🍔, Stanley Kubrik's film "The Shining" 🪓, the term "conspiracy theory" 🤫, the ways that comedy shows can reveal the truth 🎭, and the complex art of happiness 🙂.

0:19.0	Hello, listeners, welcome back to Luke's English podcast. I hope you're doing fine out there in Lepland.

1:18.0	That should be the episode I published directly before this one.
