Aid Thompsin & Other Disappointments

My name is Aid. I used to do Standup. Then I had two kids. The End. Between parenthood and the pandemic, I'm finding pretty much the only way to have a social interaction with people is to literally *book in a conversation with them* (and market it as a podcast). Every guest is going to be real upset when they realise I'm not even recording them, i'm just incredibly lonely.

    #324 // Hades of Waste

    We're all reeling from the Trump victory, right? So why not spend shelve the Politics'y post-match analysis of the U.S. Election and instead just focus on the stupid, fun/weird news stories for a bit. On that basis tonight we're discussing the 40 Monkeys that went missing in South Carolina and the Govt initiative to heat London buildings with sewage.

    #322 // In Flight Riot w/ a Mandatory Jesus

    #321 // A Little Bit Goat-Shit

    A Dark-Net paedophile is jailed for 18 years for deep-faking images and videos of children to-order. Meanwhile it’s budget time here in the UK’s domestic party-political sphere. ALSO: a merry band of four cult-members storm into a court and coroner’s office and pretend they can write their own laws and legal frameworks.
