Summary
In our first episode of 2020, we tackle the idea of success. Many of us have been planning for the new year, but what is it that we want to achieve? Is money the ultimate measure of success? Is recognition more important? What about our success as a friend or spouse or parent? In this episode, we dig into our own personal definitions and, as with most things, we find that there is no one right answer. We also discuss how much our ideas of success change over time - what we wanted at 25 is never going to be the same as what we want 20 years later.
Our conversation also covers second-hand art books, a Tate Modern exhibition that Alice really didn't like, and the newest star on Tik-Tok (the world's fastest growing social media platform).

| 1:00.0 | And most of the last three days hasn't counted because I did actually spend New Year's Eve on a double bill in the cinema which was rather good fun. It has to be said two totally contrasting films. We had little women and then a dinner break that was just me and my |

| 1:49.0 | It's happened. The virus is back. I have got the planning virus back again and I am totally on fire with all the lovely exciting things I'm going to do and trying desperately to work out how I can fit it all in which is |
