Alice Last Week
Added 2023-02-16 02:15:14 +0000 UTC
Brought to you by me, and various collaborators and organisations, special thanks to Amy Carver who helped me line up this despite being mid house-move.
The Gargle Episode 99.
Friendzone, Groundhog, Clumpy Universe –
With John-Luke Roberts and Eleanor Morton, who are always fun to have on together, because you can really feel their friendship, I think.

Tea with Alice
BattleCast with Baratunde Thurston:
I’m pleased as punch (a kind of fruit tea) with this episode. Baratunde is such a good thinker and talker, and I think this might be a classic episode - of the kind I’d put forward as an example of what I like to do.

The News Quiz: on BBC Sounds – Episode 7
I know the news quiz appears on the app after it’s stopped being topical. Every time i see a tweet about it, there’s a bunch of replies saying “I’ve stopped listening because if I don’t catch it live I have to wait weeks!” I understand, but this is not something I control.
I spin it as a positive; if you’re getting your news from the news quiz, you can enjoy living in your own special time travel timeline. If you’re getting your news elsewhere, it’s a nice flashback to the old news, which can remind you of how irrelevant to how you live your day-to-day life most news actually is.
