The Bureau de Change of the Mind - ‘The Biggest Keys in Comedy’
Elis James and John RobinsAvailable for over a year
Great thinkers who have explored the human mind and consciousness: René Descartes, Ada Lovelace, Friedrich Nietzsche. We can now add three more names to the list, as Elis, John and Dave start today’s Bureau with some cerebral chat about what we really mean by 'the mind'. Strap in brain bods, this one is really going to get the old think tank thinking. There’s only one place to go after such highbrow musings, fatbergs. And from there it’s pure post. There's a surprising amount of keyring-based gifts, and the eternal question of whether John’s desire for sweet treats will be fulfilled.
