Not all heroes wear capes (not that it matters for an audio-only podcast). Simon Weekes is the hero you didn’t ask for but really needed, or something. The world can be be a better, fairer, kinder, less/more draconian place, and this is where it starts.
Love it love it love it
Loved the first two episodes of this! Surreal, funny and not as authoritarian as it might sound. We simply must stop food influencers.
Love this: Simon is a great host, gently encouraging his guests but then expertly grilling them to justify their choices. And full of great comics too. Get listening.
