In this Bonus Patch, Josh reflects on a surprise 40th birthday party that involved sparklers, toilet-based serenading, and a photo album of friends’ feet. He also explores the strange urge to prove you “get it” — whether it’s bonding with bar staff over POS systems or reminding everyone he once worked in hospo. Meanwhile, Christian finds himself nodding along a little too eagerly at a party, bluffing his way through a conversation about coding. 

We also discuss whether tram drivers should be forced to wave at each other, fantasise about life as a train driver, and try to figure out why people insist on having long conversations right at the bar.
