Remember the beginning of COVID where you were furiously scrubbing away at your groceries and Lysol was more expensive than gold? We do. In what is very much a time capsule episode (this was recorded at the beginning of the first worldwide lockdown in April 2020), Dave, Phivos and Benet are joined by friend of the show, actor, singer and dragon-slayer Luke Evans. They chat about coping tools, meditation, success, pressure and (inevitably) how unprepared everyone felt for a lockdown.

The team are back, this time trying to openly tackle the heavy topic of death. They touch on grief, guilt, fear, and what it all means to those left behind, while Benet is on-hand to offer some therapeutic advice on how to cope and why he uses the word "snuff".

Are you "stealing joy from the present" with your perfectionistic tendencies? Today the lads discuss 'Perfectionism' and how it can be both good and bad, how to be aware of it, and why it took so long to start this podcast in the first place. In the spirit of this episode, we only performed one pass on this edit despite Phivos wanting to do more. PS. This description took us way too long to write. PPS. If you need a good vacuum recommendation, we got you.
