In episode 122, Rosie and Jessica are back after a long break although not as long a break as you’ve had.

 Yesterday of Fun…Episode 56: Toffee and Maths | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:40:06

We’re heading back into the archives with Episode 56 from 2015. Rosie was writing an essay on The Wizard of Oz and was totally unable to talk about anything else, except for sticky toffee puddings. Luckily Jessica was on hand to talk us through her many cakes (and keep things on track.) You can listen to it on iTunes or online here: This week’s songsJessica picked Ultraviolet by fictional band, The Stiff Dylans and Rosie picked Belle & Sebastian’s Nobody’s Empire.

Do not eat your bracelets (except maybe in an emergency.) Woollen Woods are in bloom at Arlington Court. Rosie was on Friend of the Show Lucy’s podcast Symphonies and Snacks making almost salient points about contemporary classical music. This is the best sloth.

 Episode 120: Bonnets and Scams | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:54:02

In episode 120, Rosie and Jessica are quickly derailed by Rosie’s twin obsessions: denim and scams. Once Rosie’s got those – and curséd pom pom creatures – out of her system, Jessica takes us through the many books she’s read during work hours. Rosie meanwhile has been knitting on the job although her job technically is knitting so it’s probably okay? You can listen to it on iTunes or online here: This week’s songs Jessica picked Celebrity Skin by Hole, while Rosie went for Slow Burn by by Kacey Musgraves. Playlists of all our song choices are available on Spotify! Here are Jessica‘s and Rosie‘s. Want to hear more about scams? The Dropout takes you behind literal blood scam, Theranos.

We’re taking another dip into the archives with a Yesterday of Fun from 2017. Back then, Jessica was entering a period of funemployment that mainly consisted of shredding.
