61. The Beachspiracy

This jam-packed episode of LIP starts off with a return appearance by Conspiracy Neil (5:00). In what will likely become a recurring segment, he makes his case for beaches being the worst scam known to man. Do people truly enjoy themselves on a beach or are they just there to signal something? What British lord started this scam in the first place? Is sand overrated? And are pools generally better?Then Nicola segways us into the wide world of geography (18:20), discussing theories on why it is so under-appreciated and under-taught in schools. Are we undergoing a geo-renaissance thanks to computer games and Tim Marshall? We ask ourselves what the biggest geographic misconceptions are (29:45), before rounding off with a contentious quiz (41:10)!All of this and much more on this episode of LIP!
