kind of exhausting, you know, when you do interview after interview and everybody is really nice because I don't know what they're going to say, but they don't actually come and say, look, we're really going to, what we want to do is really hammer you.
So it's a very pleasant way of spending a morning and you mostly don't have that kind of opportunity to
to witter on about what you want to witter on without somebody saying, excuse me, you know, it's my turn to get into this conversation.
So it's very, at that point, it's reaffirming, but it's kind of tiring.
I was very well provided for with a tiny bit of breakfast when I got to the interview location.
Some oatmeal kind of stuff with strawberries.
Yes, it was very nice.
Thank you, Holly.
Oh, right.
There is this skeleton cast of human remains, which could be interpreted.
A comedian is kind of bound to interpret this.
But I'm hoping that on our podcast, we can perhaps take that subject on once we've got into it and maybe examine the evidence a bit more carefully.
How many did I do?
I did four yesterday.
Mostly press, but we did another podcast because I'm co-presenting this with Charlotte Higgins from The Guardian.
And so we did a podcast kind of setting out our stall to another podcast.
I can tell you this, I think.
It's Intelligence Squared.
Don't worry.
I'm sure they will one day.
