This week we’re delighted to be joined by co-creator of the fabulous Arden podcast and official Very Funny Person, Sara Ghaleb!

We begin with a road trip for the ages (specifically the ages of 5-13) and turn it into a heartwarming, if slightly Freaky Friday, family drama. Then we embark on our first two part bad idea - a tale of tension between two countries, and the pigeon caught between them. Naturally, we turn it into the teen romance Armando Iannucci doesn’t know he needs to make.   

Plus: Digital detox, the whisper network, the best codebreakers in the world, the problem with Fast Five, and reasons we’re done with birds.
