It's been a couple of weeks, thanks to Floridian trees - no, really.
So we're catching on on what's happened since the last episode.
Paul trauma bombs with his experience of talking to young Gen Z students. We also talk the fall of the Assad regime in Syria, exploding scooters in Moscow, discuss the mysterious drones over New Jersey and ask "what the hell is a plasmoid?"

There's a developing story, just as we are recording. But, by the time you listen to this, the drama of a declaration of martial law in South Korea is pretty much over. Still, it got us thinking about the impact on the world, and Phylecia has a thought about K-POP that could leave you reeling.
Paul is at risk of entering full on prepper mode, so what do we do about all of this?
Phylecia comes to the rescue with some advice for the first few weeks of 2025.

Look, we've lived many years now. We're at least half way through life and we've survived so far.
We've made mistakes so you don't have to. Listen to Uncle Paul and Auntie Phylecia as we share pearls of wisdom. It turns out we're quite wise.

IT'S OUR 200th EPISODE!
But we forgot to acknowledge that on the episode because we're soooo focused on bringing you some analysis on the US election result and what we think it means going forward.
We look at it from a US and UK perspective and look ahead to the future. Why is this decade so exhausting?

We knew that any normal show could be very outdated very quickly. So, instead, let us welcome you to a special episode recorded asynchronously through WhatsApp.
It gives you a real time view of thinking and discussion points. It's also an insight into how we discuss things when we're not recording the show. Yes, believe it or not, you only get a tiny part of our discussions on the podcast.
What do you think to this format? Should we do more like this?

It's less than one week until the US election and the craziness STILL hasn't peaked. We talk about rallies and how racism and dehumanising is not a problem for a lot of people.
We also touch on 'woke churches' and Trump as the messiah. It's all very weird. Join us as we try to make some sense of it and then, either way, breathe a sigh of relief when we can get talking about Gen Z and influencers in the future.

Paul's been to Miami - such a flex. He provides some insight into what he sees as the pre-election atmosphere from an outsider perspective. Phylecia has received her huge ballot paper - she talks through how it works and what the next couple of weeks hold.

According to various sources that we saw about five minutes ago, the kids are saying they don't feel like they are truly an adult until they are 30.
Why? Is it the state of the world? Their parents trying to protect them? The internet?
And why can't they read a book?
We look at what may be causing this anxiety and whether a good old dose of toxic workplace could help.

In this episode we consider things that society just accepts as real but are possible scams. We're thinking seriously normal things - is it culture that has just accepted things as real or is there a potential ulterior motive behind accepted behaviour?
This is just a bit of fun - we promise you we're not veering into conspiracy theories; there are enough of those already.

We all gotta eat. When the bills have got to be paid and the work's just not coming in, perhaps it's time to consider alternative options.
So, in this episode, we look at different ways to make money, increasing in their extremism.
Which would you consider?

Apparently they are eating the cats, eating the dogs. Which, at first, seems funny, but when you look at where this racist trope comes from, it's a constant theme in the American immigration story. We look into where this comes from and what it says about the US election.
Humans Exhaust Me moments this week feature the grifting from the paranormal. And we talk exploding pagers, after Phylecia explains what a pager is.

The UK is on fire with far-right rioting in many towns and cities. All stoked by misinformation relating to the Southport attacks. Fuelled by Elon Musk and social media commentary, there are many with questions to answer. We discuss what's going on.
Plus, there's an Olympics update from Paris.

A bit of a chaotic episode as we discuss the Paris 2024 Olympic Games™ which kind of reflects the start of the games themselves. No, we did not make it to Tahiti.

Just when you think the US can't get any weirder, let's throw in an assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Paul has entered the TikTok analysis and shares with Phylecia, who has avoided it at all costs. Nonetheless, she has some interesting thoughts.
We also discuss the RNC - a new experience for Paul who tries to work out why each state feels the need to flex as they announce their votes (very Eurovision).
