Summary

After a quick catch-up from some mental drugs announcements from the two main parties, I speak to proper stand-up Zoe Lyons. We have a good old chin-wag about how comedy is going and whether social media comics have what it takes for live. Plus Zoe, as a left leaning comic, shares her surprise at how some of our colleagues reacted to Brexit in their acts.

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to episode 192 of what most people think. I'm in a good mood, man.
0:20.5	I went to a mate's 50th of another weekend and he is my mate Luke. Happy birthday Luke.
0:27.4	We had a good laugh. He's like me, he likes his house music so it was like a bit of a club night.
0:32.3	It was it was a lot of people out there dancing who might have had to have some ibuprofen the following day.
0:38.7	But one thing I realised is if you just have older friends, my friends on average,
0:44.0	this group of lads in particular, are all about roughly four to five years older than me.
0:49.1	So every single time they go through, you know, they've all been becoming 50 recently.
0:53.7	I say to them, happy birthday and I am significantly younger than you. I hope this helps.
0:58.4	Just drop that in every time, just your reminder, okay. It makes me feel, it makes me feel young,
1:04.0	just befriend people who are older than you. That's what Kierstarma, I don't know if you saw this last
1:08.4	week, Kier and Rishia going toe-to-toe on who can look toughest on law and order. And Kierstarma

1:25.3	open and there's a smell of cannabis coming into it. It's just such a weird thing to go on,
1:31.2	like obviously if you live in a place where it stinks of weed all the time, you know, I guess that
1:37.0	is annoying, but you know from a politics point of view, surely you either express a view on what
1:41.9	you thought about cannabis, whether or not you should, you know, please should go harder for
1:46.4	possession. I think they would go against public opinion at this point. So you just thought, oh,
1:50.3	I know I can seem tough. I'm going to seem really cross about the smell of cannabis just everywhere,
1:55.8	everywhere you go now. Cannabis, very noxious smell, or if you're into your ganger, maybe not something.
2:03.1	And then meanwhile, you've got the Tories getting rid of of laughing gas. They're going to make
2:07.8	laughing gas illegal. It's just so funny at this point, we've got all these problems. The two main
