And remember, don’t idolise Sylar. He killed people.

I’ve learnt more talking to myself than ever listening to others, and it’s about time I put that wisdom to good use through some relationship advice.

A completely scripted sode? Yeah, YEAH. It’s exciting and equally neat. But what more it’s impressive. Intimidatingly so. How can I live up to this in future episodes? Who knows. Let’s not think about that. Instead just listen to scripted discussions on Tril-by dates, taking a quick semaphore, and tongue twisters about Corey committing cremation. I wrote 8000 words for this one, so you better listen to at least 1000 of them [threat].

Am I hearing double? Yes, yes you are! It’s Alex on Alex in the most Alex way possible: contrived podcast premises. Because this week I am being interviewed by an alternate version of myself. Will this lead us both to form a deeper understanding of ourselves? Or will we simply discuss pointing at balloons on our father’s shoulders, jumping into Hurley from Lost’s photo like Mario 64, and our shared financial domination fetish? I think you know the answer.

More so in the recorded my credit card in a TikTok kind of way. But it’s okay, because this is the perfect time for me to demonstrate my excellent PR training. So join me as I listen back over the leaks and justify elevator pitches, airplane blackbox recordings and the glory of the PlayStation Vita. I would listen...

All of the genres, all of the films, all of the time. Everything Everywhere All the Time? No, not that movie. But I am looking forward to it. I’ve lost track of this description.
