Coronavirus has brought us back for a live episode

Hello slimes! We're back off our break and staying indoors, like we always have. With no more Brexit, it's Coronavirus taking up everyone's time, probably quite rightly. But, weird things still happen too. So if you want a break from the real, scary news, we've got just the thing. Us, live. Kind of.

We took the podcast to Instagram Live and actually had some listeners, for once. Stay safe, stay inside and wash your goddamn hands.
