    #13 - Walking and Talking during lockdown

    Annabel and Ian return in these trying times with a new mobile format. Sort of. With COVID19 doing its thing around the world, A+I use their bi-weekly stroll for coffee (exercise) to talk about the pandemic, comfort in Youtube coffee and Scifi, and potentially filling a Succession-sized hole.

    #12 - Nostalgia

    Is Nostalgia good or bad? Has it become too powerful? Why are we obsessed with what was? When is a remake a worthy remake? Annabel mostly asks questions that neither Ian nor Annabel can answer. One thing we can agree on, Nostalgia has some serious Perception Issues.
