Sure you do.

This one may sound a little weird because it’s the first episode recorded in the new studio (a.k.a. the spare bedroom of the house we just moved in to). Try to ignore the echo and instead just revel in the hilarity of bronchitis, 768 Kbps Internet, rain on cardboard boxes, hustlers and con artists, Sylvester Stallone and Ariana Grande, landlines, landlords, lunatics, putting an ‘i’ or an ‘e’ in front of every name or service in the 90s, Pringles, silence, power outages, gorillas, roller coasters and getting fired from your job.
