some kind of weird Lucky Charms and Frosted Flakes mash-up” Read more

I learnt a long time ago not to tell internet strangers where I live. But yeah, England. Read more

When I see that front box all I can think of is: Read more

Good god I think I went in to a food coma just reading this. Whoever decided that cereal was somehow a healthy (let alone the sugar-in-a-bowl-of-milk concoctions they’re selling now) thing to have for breakfast was insane.  Nothing like a massive carb/sugar bomb first thing in the morning to ensure that you’re Read more

Thanks for coming on the podcast, Stephen! Glad I could geek out with another Pikmin fan. I truly hope the series returns within the next year or so. And I hope everyone checks out Challenger Approaching. I’ve had a great time researching each episode and talking to all my special guests. Read more

When I was working on my PhD, I spent countless hours with people from the middle east. I found that we had far more in common with the people from Iran compared to many countries, especially Saudi Arabia, UAE and Qatar.  Read more
