  Self-explanatory, as always: I’m bad with names but I could identify that service set anywhere Hitch: the elite private schooldog born with a silver bone in his mouth The nose Mohs Calling the Cancer Council helpful would be the real charity Do you even stairlift, bro?

  In honour of Dr Gary Foley’s recent 75th birthday, Beautiful Fairy Princess continues with her dastardly plan to publish his complete biography in podcast form before Tony Birch has the chance to write any of it down. Besides, reading is for suckers, which is why I’m just going to trail off …… Ugh, fine. Stories included feature the likes of John Webster, Marcia Langton, Germaine Greer, Bob Bellear, Paul Coe, Gary Williams, Pat O’Shane, Chicka Dixon, Bob Maza, Ken and Sacha Horler, Ray Peckham, Joe Strummer, and more! Plus, Bird Ferguson briefly steals the show.

  Lured by the undeniable architectural triumph that is the newly unveiled Feminist Wing at Floate Library—it didn’t take very long, either—our prodigal heroes return to say things directly at each other’s faces. Some of those things: Inclu-Size Me Learning to fly (choice of socks is the hardest thing) Talk of circadian rhythm Buckminster: Full of it? The Great Biographer Theory of History Stone Temple Co-passengers Poor person’s business class Irredeemable: One framed portrait of the monarch’s consort, please Consciously uncoupling from news It’s the pantyhose women that give her, give her, give her the pantyhose blues MobLandia On not growing up to be Helen Mirren and/or Christina Hendricks Is it possible that Guy Ritchie isn’t actually shit?
