#471 - John’s Critical Path, Elis’s 0.0% Curry and Dave’s Not So Silent Alarm
Dave’s idea for the team to record remotely gets derailed quite spectacularly by a faulty alarm system.
What starts off as a huge day for John (book deadline day) turns into a massive (massive it is) day for poor old Dave.
As the saying goes: ‘The best laid plans of podcast producers often go awry’, and Dave’s idea for the team to record remotely gets derailed quite spectacularly by a faulty alarm system. Brace yourselves for the most stressed you will probably ever hear one of the UK’s most unflappable men.
Back to John, and he tells us early on that he’s feeling ‘absolutely dreadful’. Book deadline day is taking its toll, but luckily a text from Elis’s brother-in-law lifts his spirits, as does the arrival of a record in the post for poor old stressed Dave.
There’s the start of a podcast feud with No Such Thing As A Fish, chat about successfully bartering with a supermarket, and the introduction of a new jingle that wouldn’t be out of place on Lou Reed’s Transformer.
