Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Hello, this is Joe. Just a quick message before we start the episode. This episode was meant to be about telling you about the Christmas song that's going to be released on Spotify and other platforms or whatever, but we sort of don't get around to it. We do at the end.
Chapter 2: What Christmas songs are featured in this episode?
so yeah we play at the end something um but also in the meantime what happened was we thought we couldn't put this christmas song out for copyright reasons so uh we thought that was gonna happen but then it didn't and now we can put it out but in the meantime we recorded a second song so uh that's also at the end of the ep so there's two songs for those reasons okay cheers bye
It's a weird thing to say, but you know when you're a bit ill? I feel there's like a smell that comes with being ill. Like a sweat.
Anyway. Do you ever get the smell when you're running? Like a metallic smell. Is it a metallic smell? I really worried about it. And I got home once. I was like, fuck no. It's really weird. And I googled it. It's quite common. No. I thought I was about to have a fit or something.

No, you have. I'm not taking any credit for it. I love it. Do you? Yeah. I played it to Henry Packer yesterday. Oh, did you? Yeah, Petra did. Is Henry all right with that? Well, that was the weird thing. He had to sit there and listen to the whole thing. She just played the whole thing. That's not long, is it? Is it long? It's like two and a half minutes. It's quite a long two and a half minutes.
