Calculated Drivel

This week we welcome James Doran as our special guest. We discuss James's career in the automotive industry, life in Sweden and his new podcast The Expat Pod. ...and of course plenty of the usual drivel too.

Marc and Matt catch up about Canadian proposals and Irish cats. Would you shoot a harvest mouse?

We see the return of Calculated Drivel's wine correspondent Huw, who gives us an insight into what life is like down under. Expect an Australian slant on all of the usual features as well as an update on Marc's open plan toilet.

An extra special special guest joins Marc and I this week… The magical Paul Foot goes on a deep dive, high octane drivel adventure. Buckle up.

Have you ever heard of ancient braille?  This week Marc tells us about his favourite braille-related cinema moments and Matt reads us a story about a scorpion and a frog.

The usual drivel from the boys. Expect stories about oil... amongst other things.
