TAI CHI & WARDROBES
Tai Chi is absolute wank and ain't that the truth. If anyone knows that it’s plumbers. With help from Kim Noble’s sensei, we learn the importance of breathing. This episode was mainly recorded from a showroom wardrobe and also includes a free meditation session.

WALLS AND RELATIONSHIPS
Back in 2012 Kim recorded the sounds of his neighbours having sex. He will share those sounds with you... if that's ok… and we’ll listen to a secret recording he made whilst a girlfriend broke up with him back in 2005. He recorded it for training and quality control purposes.

NOTES ON HUMAN KINDNESS
Guppies can teach us a lot: The world is full of selfish arseholes. You’re probably one yourself. In this episode Kim Noble attempts to return a wallet he found on a 172 bus to its rightful owner and in doing so breaks into a community garden. P.S. the location of a stash of money Kim buried in a roundabout near Manchester is at 18 mins 47 secs if you want to jump to that bit.

Customer Reviews
Must Listen
In an ocean full of podcasts this podcast is a mermaid. A unicorn. So different, so unique, and delightfully (yet depressingly) enjoyable!
I have no connection to the show this is just my personal opinion. Episode three can be a bit of a hard listen, although I still enjoyed it. And if it’s not your cup of tea just skip to episode four. I’m sure this type of humor and “in your face” honesty isn’t for everyone but it’s been one of my favorites this year.
All 10 episodes are out to binge now!
And a special word to the creator, Kim; All I can say is bravo and thank you! I really hope to hear a season 2! You deserve all the awards 🏆🥇
