The Unprofessionals Podcast

This time on the Unprofessionals Podcast, Nathan and I discuss the World Cup ahead of the finale this weekend. What's worked and hasn't worked from the winter World Cup? We also pick our three Christmas movies we'd take to a desert island.

Then the main topic, should we have tiebreakers in life? In futbol, penalty kicks sometimes decide the most intense matches and tournaments in the world. Should we have something similar in life? Perhaps a foot race with the disagreeable boss or a  trash can paper shootout for the last ham at the grocery store.

Plus creatine corner and Christmas party etiquette.

This time on the Unprofessionals Podcast, Nathan and I catch up after a few weeks off. I give Nathan his Christmas Gift to start things off then we give Andor a deserving sendoff after a thrilling finale.

Finally, Creatine Corner and Fashion Advice Christmas Party edition.
