    Climate change, Bad Bunny and the Winter Olympics

    Theo and Rob are back on their respective sides of the Atlantic and get their teeth into some meaty - and admittedly somewhat depressing - conversation topics, either side of a pleasingly distracting crossword. They also hail Bad Bunny's continent-salving appearance at the Super Bowl halftime show, and the Canadian women's hockey team.
