You asked, we listened! After a (relatively) brief hiatus the entire LIP cast is back for Season Three!It's just like old times as we kick off with some mundane postulation around sleeping on the job. The science is clear on the benefits of afternoon naps, so when will corporate culture catch up? From there we take a quick detour into the debate absolutely nobody is having: is breakfast cereal technically a soup?Then it's time for a glorious comeback from a fan-favourite segment: we've tried Interrailing, we've tried Casino-Heists, but nothing can prepare you for the Ultimate Celebrity Ski Trip.

LIP 68 is packing heat with a few classic segments. First up, Neil helps Nicola kick out dinner part guests from his house (1:45). What is the optimal strategy for throwing people out so you can hit the hay? Does an overly-polite and passive British approach get you what you want? Or can it backfire somehow? What about making up lies about your next day? Or should you just stand up, shake everybody's hand and lock yourself in the bedroom?Then, we want to know, have you ever seen the falls? Falling down on us? We take a journey to the US-Canada border where we hear from some One Star Google Reviewers about their experiences visiting Niagara Falls (10:15). The postulation drifts rapidly in many directions but leaves us asking: can a peace ever be brokered between the Canadian and American side of this great landmark? And is LIP best positioned to bring about that peace?Don't forget that you can watch video clips of our episodes on our Youtube channel.Send in your own postulations to our X account @InPostulation, Instagram @lostinpostulation and via email lostinpostulation@gmail.com!

For the first time ever in the history of LIP, we've recorded an episode with only one host! Nicola hosts the podcast and talks to himself for the better part of half an hour, while the world holds its breath in anticipation of Neil's return from his travels to the South of France. In the core postulatory segment, he continues his lonely crusade to make airports a better place by introducing referees and a card system (5:10). Should you be punished from cropdusting your way through the terminal? What about letting your kids wreak havoc? And why are you still having lose change in your pocket when going through security? After that healthy does of mundanity, he shifts his attention to his current pop culture consumption habits (21:30). Should we all give stand up comedy shows another chance? Why are there not that many good movies during awards season?

Tuck in your napkins, sit back and prepare yourselves for an extortionate bill, because LIP is diving into the world of fine dining (6:20)! Neil and Nicola don't hold back as they postulate their way through a ten course menu without any toilet breaks. Is fine dining really all that fine? Do we actually need to eat pigeon eyeballs cured in a casing of beeswax under awkwardly dim lighting? And have we reached peak-celebrity chef?Then, our friends from the Reddit-verse assist us in navigating the a-hole sphere (20:50). Who is the a-hole out there in internet land? Is a very expensive cologne an insensitive birthday gift? What do we think of people that take a principled stance on only dating people taller than themselves? And should you let parents know that they are mispronouncing their own child's name?Don't forget that you can watch video clips of our episodes on our Youtube channel.Send in your own postulations to our X account @InPostulation, Instagram @lostinpostulation and via email lostinpostulation@gmail.com!
