Bernard Avocado Salt The Recovery Room with Lucy Bloom

    • Books

Bernard is a demographer, speaker and writer. For several decades, Bernard has studied population and economic shifts as indicators for the future, and then helped explain them to the rest of us. He has his own language and authority from Her Majesty the Queen to make up new words as required. I made that last bit up. However, whenever you see smashed avo on a menu, I think of Bernard, because he was the original commentator who linked the ridiculous cost of smashed avo in cafes to the impossibility of GenXers ever buying their own home. True story. He’s a Baby Boomer, but that’s OK.
