It’s happened. Elis and John have turned into crypto bros. This is now a crypto pod. It was only a matter of time… But worry not, it’s only a fleeting transformation, and after some serious reflections the boys are back doing what they do best: discussing how to approach an all-you-can-eat buffet, wading further into the dried fruits vs sweets deba…

It’s a giddy John we encounter today, for our hero is about to embark on his yearly golfing pilgrimage to Elis’s beloved Portugal. Talk of unspeakably high win rates and historic opportunities to become “better than Man City at golf” abounds. Elsewhere, there’s a lengthy discussion about the pros and cons of skipping TV theme music, an eventful out…
