thursday af'noon

issue 12

making up for lost time

Pick of the week

Brainstorming [Radio: 28:00]

Brainstorming doesn't work (at least in groups) and there is much research to back this up. Jon Ronson investigates and uncovers an intriguing story from Latvia involving a large hole and a fire. Follow up with the first episode if only to confirm your bias.
