Summary

PJ has absolutely nothing to do, he's living in the privilege of pure boredom. He's like a cardboard human at a baseball game. He then goes off on Leeds FC, and makes a ballsy wager on their losses. Who would rob a dead man's heart? There's some Irish history in this episode and some of the gossip of great Irish authors and their meanderings. Dublin Castle, Christchurch Cathedral, James Connolly and the Queen of Tarts all make appearances. There are ghosts and banshees and the possibility of the dead not being dead. Suddenly we're jolted back to modern times as there's a gift from Kilkenny! PJ's PA (Suzanne) has some updates on his house saga... what about the log cabin? Anyway, she gives him another week of dodging before he has to get back on getting his act together. Social anxiety creeps into the Kane/Donnelly household. Suzanne becomes the face of pandemic maternity life. Little piece for the Herald. They move on to ballin' over Big School. What's the difference between a boy baby and a girl baby? Suzanne learns some biology. Go buy a t-shirt and enjoy Dubland. This episode is sponsored by The UX Design Institute. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

0:52.0	UX design is about how it feels to use a product, a website or an app. So UX designers are people whose job it is to make software sort of simple, fun and easy to use. Essentially, if you use something and you like how it works, that is what UX design is. So they spot kind of the small details that make if your apps and websites easy.
