@dorianlynskey.bsky.social Absolutely gutted to hear you're leaving OGWN. I've been a listener since episode 2 or 3 and it's consistently been my favourite pod since then, largely down to your hosting talents.

All the best for your future endeavours.

To cheer everyone up, here is an anecdote about when David Bowie was filming the video for Ashes to Ashes.

The latest behaviour smacks of grift rather than insanity though?

Late to the party but Adolescence really is jaw-dropping, heartbreaking TV. A masterpiece.

Have you read Say Nothing?

Latest Adam Buxton podcast with John Inverdale's inadvertent c-bomb at the end is the funniest thing I've heard in a long time.

Season 1 - brilliant
Season 2 - passable
Season 3 - close to giving up

You can only have so much mystery without resolution before it gets tedious

I went from S20 to S25 (normal model, not the Plus or Ultra) and it's pretty much the same size. Decent.

Australia is a great place to live, but a lousy place to work This has long been considered the β€œlucky country”, but when it comes to the workplace, it seems we’re not so lucky after all.

In many ways, the absolute opposite is true.

Disappointed Dutton didn't go full Trump at the end - claim the election was rigged, lead a mob of halfwits to storm Canberra etc.

A love song to the filth we left behind And the desperate crushing sadness of becoming more sensible

Off clubbing tomorrow. A few years ago, my preparations would have involved procuring narcotics - this time I have been researching ear plugs.

With that in mind, this excellent piece by @iandunt.bsky.social about the lost pleasures of hedonism really hit home.
