Saudi Arabiaa month ago - Shameless public funded advertisement
I like “Sliced Bread” as it often maintains a balanced analysis. Thought “Dough” would be the same but no. The episode on hairdryer is a shameless advertisement for Dyson- i did not time but majority of the show was given to that Dyson lady boasting about their products while others only talked very little. I don’t mind if BBC got paid for this but didn’t think so. Have second thoughts before trying other episodes. Should be zero star.

Pretty good content, can’t stand Greg Foot though.
Apple Podcasts3Bruce786United Kingdom7 months ago - Sliced Bread - limitations
Just relistened to a few Sliced Bread podcasts. I love the series and the ideas behind the programmes, but I can’t help being frustrated at times by the lack of breadth.

Does soaking & washing up in cold water get bugs such as that off? Face creams - if you don’t use make-up, is it necessary to cleanse before moisturising? Why use sunscre... more
