Time Off - Tuesday April 2nd to Wednesday 3rd2024

 

What happened?

Got in from work on Tuesday morning at a quarter past nine, went to sleep until 11:30am, and then woke up like an extra from an apocalyptic zombie property. 

That evening I recorded an episode of When They Was Fab with Ed, where we spoke about three episodes of the Paul McCartney podcast McCartney: A Life In Lyrics, specifically the episodes about Silly Love Songs (the worst episode they’ve issued) , A Day In The Life, and Hey Jude. 

On Wednesday two episodes of Pods Like Us were recorded, where I chatted Reena from Better Call Daddy, and the other was with the guy who uses the pseudonym Oreo Broker on YouTube for videos that he creates, and Immortal Beloved on Wattpad, where he writes fan fiction and original stories, as well as poetry.

Also that night myself, Ed and Kit finished recording our discussion about the charts of April 1964. 

Other than this we watched some Seinfeld, Gogglebox, and the film Ghostbusters Afterlife, which was predictable to a degree, although I think that if Harold Ramis had been alive, it might have been likely that he had a speaking part. Of course, that wasn’t possible.
