Summary

A rather shortened version of the podcast this week, entirely down to Iain’s lack of ability to notice his hard drive was full. Normal service will be resumed next week. At least we think it will!

Hello, it's Ian here. The observant of you may have noticed that this podcast is rather shorter than usual. The reason being that we recorded a full 90-minute version, but unfortunately, the laptop that I'm using has got a full hard disk,

0:24.9

and it only lets us record the last 20 minutes, bizarrely.

0:28.6

So I'm afraid all of our wise words have gone into the ether,

0:33.5

and you will have missed our insight into Boris Johnson's first 10 days,

0:38.8

and indeed the fact that I'm sitting here in my student accommodation in Edinburgh, looking over at some other flats where in the

0:44.7

middle of the podcast, some guy got out of bed without the curtains closed and stripped off.

0:51.3

So there is reference to that in the 20 minutes that you will hear, but I'm afraid

0:55.8

the 12th of August, because we recorded these ads a good six weeks ago.

1:54.0

And nothing has transpired.

1:58.7

Oh, my God, he's taking his pants off.

2:02.6

And? And? He's now gone behind the pillar again.

2:07.7

That's hilarious. Have you had a full frontal?

2:11.3

A full backtall. Oh, right. Okay. But you haven't seen the twig and berries yet.
