Our first special guest in the summer series is Scottish author and social researcher David F Porteous, and we’re going to talk about everything that happened in 2024. Every single thing.
Well, no. However we do have to talk about Donald Trump. Sorry, but we do.
We also talk about the latest challenge to honesty on OnlyFans, the latest in adult diapers, certain aspects of biology, the Spanish Armada, Australia’s love of Olympic-level breakdancing, and much more.
