Every podcast, mate. Every fucking one. Sometimes twice. Lord of the Parallel Parking Rings. I can't take it.

I don't know! And it's delivered in such a "this is a *brilliant* pun" fashion. We need to find the ad agency responsible and being them to trial.

@pierrenovellie.bsky.social I believe that you're a man who will appreciate (translation: hate) the DriveScore advert, currently in every podcast that I download.

"Do you consider yourself a good driver? Is your nickname Lord of the Parallel Parking Rings?"

Awful. Doesn't work on any level.

We've unsubscribed from Disney+. At least we can stop paying them every month!

100%. The IT-related jokes were old hat before it was even first broadcast. Only when it got more surreal, did it get any better.

But, ideally, only when I'm trying to be!

A quick Google suggests they're still around so, yeah, them.

For that kind of thing, Saxon Violence, if they're still going. Absolutely brilliant quality and a great eye for the authenticity.

Blimey. That's a seriously "open plan" office!

Please keep posing the questions, pointing out the contradictions and even applauding the good decisions. You're in an almost unique position on this one.

You should read this

substack.com/@lewisgoodal...

then look at the BBC who are leading with "thousand of immigrants were secretly let into the country" rather than "government covered up massive data breach and wanted to abandon endangered Afghans but were told they couldn't"

Both. Because it depends upon the precise tense of the sentence.

I'm so glad you said this. Absolute rubbish from them.

Well done, squire!

Just finished reading The Irish in the Resistance by @clodaghfinn.bsky.social and John Morgan; I can't recommend it highly enough.

Brilliantly told and incredibly easy to read. Fascinating stories of a bunch of people who, IMO, had absolutely no need to risk their lives but did so anyway.

Yeah, that's a bit shit of them. Word of mouth really seems to matter for promoting stuff.
